Rhyme Scheme: A BC B D EF E G HI H J KL K M NF N O PM QIN Thule lived a monarch | A |
- | |
Still faithful to the grave | B |
To whom his dying mistress | C |
- | |
A golden goblet gave | B |
- | |
Beyond all price he deem'd it | D |
- | |
He quaff'd it at each feast | E |
And when he drain'd that goblet | F |
- | |
His tears to flow ne'er ceas'd | E |

And when he felt death near him | G |

A regal banquet held he | J |

In his ancestral ball | K |
In yonder sea wash'd castle | L |

'Mongst his great nobles all | K |
- | |
There stood the aged reveller | M |
- | |
And drank his last life's glow | N |
Then hurl'd the holy goblet | F |
- | |
Into the flood below | N |
- | |
He saw it falling filling | O |
- | |
And sinking 'neath the main | P |
His eyes then closed for ever | M |
- | |
He never drank again | Q |
