Camma Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCCBBDDB EAFEFATo Ellen Terry | A |
- | |
As one who poring on a Grecian urn | B |
Scans the fair shapes some Attic hand hath made | C |
God with slim goddess goodly man with maid | C |
And for their beauty's sake is loth to turn | B |
And face the obvious day must I not yearn | B |
For many a secret moon of indolent bliss | D |
When in midmost shrine of Artemis | D |
I see thee standing antique limbed and stern | B |
- | |
And yet methinks I'd rather see thee play | E |
That serpent of old Nile whose witchery | A |
Made Emperors drunken come great Egypt shake | F |
Our stage with all thy mimic pageants Nay | E |
I am grown sick of unreal passions make | F |
The world thine Actium me thine Anthony | A |
