Untitled 7 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD CECEFGFG AHAHABAB| Fame surrounds us with a glory | A |
| Dazzling as the noon day sun | B |
| And upon the page of story | A |
| Blazons deeds of greatness done | B |
| But 'tis love that sheds a brightness | C |
| Round us that can ne'er depart | D |
| And with its own gentle lightness | C |
| Writes its records on the heart | D |
| - | |
| Fame may stir the soul within us | C |
| Half with pleasure half with pain | E |
| And a world's applause may win us | C |
| With its many echoed strain | E |
| But the song of love's own singing | F |
| Though 'tis breathed by one alone | G |
| Ever to the heart is bringing | F |
| New born raptures in its tone | G |
| - | |
| Give to me one fair form near me | A |
| And I'll sigh no more for fame | H |
| Better one sweet voice to cheer me | A |
| Than the heartless crowd's acclaim | H |
| Of fame's gifts I ask not any | A |
| Its proud temples will I shun | B |
| For the voices of the many | A |
| Give to me the heart of one | B |
