The Sense Of Your Bidding Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDE FGHIHB JKLBMI DNOPOOThe sense of your bidding is unclear | A |
to pray to curse is it to fight | B |
you bid me inscrutable genius | C |
The spring slackens niggard meager | D |
and Benozzo Gozzoli's courier | D |
dozes in the drowsy thickets | E |
- | |
Hills are dark with honeyed cloud | F |
Look I do not touch lithe strings | G |
Your gaze prophetically flying | H |
is clenched gushes no winged streams | I |
and beckons by no May road trying | H |
to outstrip Hermes in his flight | B |
- | |
Hobbled horses do not neigh | J |
Aging warriors sprawl in disarray | K |
Hold your palms open wide | L |
Risen spring is bright | B |
but groves of darkness are not given | M |
to leap for joy having leapt from dreams | I |
- | |
The groom names not the hour | D |
be not guiled to tarry | N |
hark through ice the clarion voice | O |
your flax is drenched with chrism | P |
and bidding goodbye to numb laze | O |
free in love you will rise | O |
