Translations Of The Italian Poems Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE

As on a hill top rude when closing dayA
Imbrowns the scene some past'ral maiden fairB
Waters a lovely foreign plant with careB
That scarcely can its tender bud displayA
Borne from its native genial airs awayA
So on my tongue these accents new and rareB
Are flow'rs exotic which Love waters thereB
While thus o sweetly scornful I essayA
Thy praise in verse to British ears unknownC
And Thames exchange for Arno's fair domainD
So Love has will'd and oftimes Love has shownC
That what He wills he never wills in vainD
Oh that this hard and steril breast might beE
To Him who plants from heav'n a soil as freeE

John Milton
