Her Vesper Song. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC ADADEE AFAFGH AIAIJJ| The Summer lightning comes and goes | A |
| In one pale cloud above the hill | B |
| As if within its soft repose | A |
| A burning heart were never still | B |
| As in my bosom pulses beat | C |
| Before the coming of his feet | C |
| - | |
| All drugged with odorous sleep the rose | A |
| Breathes dewy balm about the place | D |
| As if the dreams the garden knows | A |
| Took immaterial form and face | D |
| As in my heart sweet thoughts arise | E |
| Beneath the ardour of his eyes | E |
| - | |
| The moon above the darkness shows | A |
| An orb of silvery snow and fire | F |
| As if the night would now disclose | A |
| To heav'n her one divine desire | F |
| As in the rapture of his kiss | G |
| All of my soul is drawn to his | H |
| - | |
| The cloud it knows not that it glows | A |
| The rose knows nothing of its scent | I |
| Nor knows the moon that it bestows | A |
| Light on our earth and firmament | I |
| So is the soul unconscious of | J |
| The beauties it reveals through LOVE | J |
