Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDCDEFEFAAABBBy a dismal cypress lying | A |
Damon cried all pale and dying | A |
Kind is death that ends my pain | B |
But cruel she I lov'd in vain | B |
The mossy fountains | C |
Murmur my trouble | D |
And hollow mountains | C |
My groans redouble | D |
Ev'ry nymph mourns me | E |
Thus while I languish | F |
She only scorns me | E |
Who caus'd my anguish | F |
No love returning me but all hope denying | A |
By a dismal cypress lying | A |
Like a swan so sung he dying | A |
Kind is death that ends my pain | B |
But cruel she I lov'd in vain | B |
