Amor Intellectualis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEECFGGHGH| Oft have we trod the vales of Castaly | A |
| And heard sweet notes of sylvan music blown | B |
| From antique reeds to common folk unknown | B |
| And often launched our bark upon that sea | C |
| Which the nine Muses hold in empery | D |
| And ploughed free furrows through the wave and foam | E |
| Nor spread reluctant sail for more safe home | E |
| Till we had freighted well our argosy | C |
| Of which despoiled treasures these remain | F |
| Sordello's passion and the honeyed line | G |
| Of young Endymion lordly Tamburlaine | G |
| Driving his pampered jades and more than these | H |
| The seven fold vision of the Florentine | G |
| And grave browed Milton's solemn harmonies | H |
