Translations Of The Italian Poems Iv To Charles Diodati. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEFF

Charles and I say it wond'ring thou must knowA
That I who once assum'd a scornful airB
And scoff'd at love am fallen in his snareB
Full many an upright man has fallen soA
Yet think me not thus dazzled by the flowA
Of golden locks or damask cheek more rareB
The heart felt beauties of my foreign fairB
A mien majestic with dark brows that showA
The tranquil lustre of a lofty mindC
Words exquisite of idioms more than oneD
And song whose fascinating pow'r might bindC
And from her sphere draw down the lab'ring MoonE
With such fire darting eyes that should I fillF
My ears with wax she would enchant me stillF

John Milton
