Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHHI gazed upon thy face and beating life | A |
Once stilled its sleepless pulses in my breast | B |
And every thought whose being was a strife | A |
Each in its silent chamber sank to rest | B |
I was not save it were a thought of thee | C |
The world was but a spot where thou hadst trod | D |
From every star thy glance seemed fix on me | C |
Almost I loved thee better than my God | D |
And still I gaze but tis a holier thought | E |
Than that in which my spirit lived before | F |
Each star a purer ray of love has caught | G |
Earth wears a lovelier robe than then it wore | F |
And every lamp that burns around thy shrine | H |
I fed with fire whose fountain is Divine | H |
