Vignettes 10: All' Amica Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBCC DDEEAAAA| And didst thou think that worldly art | A |
| Would mould anew this shrinking heart | A |
| No as a bird by storms opprest | A |
| Is sheltered in its silent nest | A |
| I nurse and soothe it in the strife | B |
| Screen from the bleakest airs of life | B |
| And bring it all that once you knew | C |
| As kind as timid and as true | C |
| - | |
| But how could I so foolish be | D |
| As not to feel a doubt of thee | D |
| This joy to find me still the same | E |
| Takes from my lip the power to blame | E |
| Else but forgive me else I find | A |
| A mist has stolen o'er thy mind | A |
| And veil'd my prospect dimm'd that light | A |
| Which once was warm and clear and bright | A |
