Alma Sdegnosa Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CBDEBE| Not that dull spleen which serves i' the world for scorn | A |
| Is hers I watch from far off worshipping | B |
| As in remote Chaldaea the ancient king | B |
| Adored the star that heralded the morn | A |
| Her proud content she bears as a flag is borne | A |
| Tincted the hue royal or as a wing | B |
| It lifts her soaring near the daylight spring | B |
| Whence if she lift our days must pass forlorn | A |
| - | |
| The pure deriving of her spirit state | C |
| Is so remote from men and their believing | B |
| They shrink when she is cold and estimate | D |
| That hardness which is but a God's dismay | E |
| As when the Heaven sent sprite thro' Hell sped cleaving | B |
| Only the gross air checkt him on his way | E |
