Ambition Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEDEFF| Now to my lips lift then some opiate | A |
| Of black forgetfulness while in thy gaze | B |
| Still lures the loveless beauty that betrays | B |
| And in thy mouth the music that is hate | C |
| No promise more hast thou to make me wait | C |
| No smile to cozen my sick heart with praise | B |
| Far far behind thee stretch laborious days | B |
| And far before thee labors soon and late | C |
| Thine is the fen fire that we deem a star | D |
| Flying before us ever fugitive | E |
| Thy mocking policy still holds afar | D |
| And thine the voice to which our longings give | E |
| Hope's siren face that speaks us sweet and fair | F |
| Only to lead us captives to Despair | F |
