Madonna Mia Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAEFGHIF| A lily girl not made for this world's pain | A |
| With brown soft hair close braided by her ears | B |
| And longing eyes half veiled by slumberous tears | C |
| Like bluest water seen through mists of rain | A |
| Pale cheeks whereon no love hath left its stain | A |
| Red underlip drawn in for fear of love | D |
| And white throat whiter than the silvered dove | D |
| Through whose wan marble creeps one purple vein | A |
| Yet though my lips shall praise her without cease | E |
| Even to kiss her feet I am not bold | F |
| Being o'ershadowed by the wings of awe | G |
| Like Dante when he stood with Beatrice | H |
| Beneath the flaming Lion's breast and saw | I |
| The seventh Crystal and the Stair of Gold | F |
