Rhyme Scheme: A BCBC DEDE FGHGFor Aline | A |
- | |
- | |
Now by what whim of wanton chance | B |
Do radiant eyes know sombre days | C |
And feet that shod in light should dance | B |
Walk weary and laborious ways | C |
- | |
But rays from Heaven white and whole | D |
May penetrate the gloom of earth | E |
And tears but nourish in your soul | D |
The glory of celestial mirth | E |
- | |
The darts of toil and sorrow sent | F |
Against your peaceful beauty are | G |
As foolish and as impotent | H |
As winds that blow against a star | G |
