To Some Ladies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDEE AFAF AEAE AGAG GHGH IEIE| What though while the wonders of nature exploring | A |
| I cannot your light mazy footsteps attend | B |
| Nor listen to accents that almost adoring | A |
| Bless Cynthia's face the enthusiast s friend | B |
| - | |
| Yet over the steep whence the mountain stream rushes | C |
| With you kindest friends in idea I rove | D |
| Mark the clear tumbling crystal its passionate gushes | E |
| Its spray that the wild flower kindly bedews | E |
| - | |
| Why linger you so the wild labyrinth strolling | A |
| Why breathless unable your bliss to declare | F |
| Ah you list to the nightingale s tender condoling | A |
| Responsive to sylphs in the moon beamy air | F |
| - | |
| 'Tis morn and the flowers with dew are yet drooping | A |
| I see you are treading the verge of the sea | E |
| And now ah I see it you just now are stooping | A |
| To pick up the keep sake intended for me | E |
| - | |
| If a cherub on pinions of silver descending | A |
| Had brought me a gem from the fret work of heaven | G |
| And smiles with his star cheering voice sweetly blending | A |
| The blessings of Tighe had melodiously given | G |
| - | |
| It had not created a warmer emotion | G |
| Than the present fair nymphs I was blest with from you | H |
| Than the shell from the bright golden sands of the ocean | G |
| Which the emerald waves at your feet gladly threw | H |
| - | |
| For indeed 'tis a sweet and peculiar pleasure | I |
| And blissful is he who such happiness finds | E |
| To possess but a span of the hour of leisure | I |
| In elegant pure and aerial minds | E |
