Alma Sdegnosa Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CBDEBENot 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 |
