Sonnet. On A Picture Of Leander Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDECCome hither all sweet Maidens soberly | A |
Down looking aye and with a chasten'd light | B |
Hid in the fringes of your eyelids white | B |
And meekly let your fair hands joined be | A |
As if so gentle that ye could not see | A |
Untouch'd a victim of your beauty bright | B |
Sinking away to his young spirit's night | B |
Sinking bewilder'd 'mid the dreary sea | A |
'Tis young Leander toiling to his death | C |
Nigh swooning he doth purse his weary lips | D |
For Hero's cheek and smiles against her smile | E |
O horrid dream see how his body dips | D |
Dead heavy arms and shoulders gleam awhile | E |
He's gone up bubbles all his amorous breath | C |
