Sonnet Xii: Now, O'er The Tesselated Pavement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCDNow o'er the tessellated pavement strew | A |
Fresh saffron steep'd in essence of the rose | B |
While down yon agate column gently flows | B |
A glitt'ring streamlet of ambrosial dew | A |
My Phaon smiles the rich carnation's hue | A |
On his flush'd cheek in conscious lustre glows | B |
While o'er his breast enamour'd Venus throws | B |
Her starry mantle of celestial blue | A |
Breathe soft ye dulcet flutes among the trees | C |
Where clust'ring boughs with golden citron twine | D |
While slow vibrations dying on the breeze | C |
Shall soothe his soul with harmony divine | D |
Then let my form his yielding fancy seize | C |
And all his fondest wishes blend with mine | D |
