L'amour Par Terre [english] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEED FGGH IJJI| The wind the other night blew down the Love | A |
| That in the dimmest corner of the park | B |
| So subtly used to smile bending his arc | B |
| And sight of whom did us so deeply move | C |
| - | |
| One day The other night's wind blew him down | D |
| The marble dust whirls in the morning breeze | E |
| Oh sad to view o'erblotted by the trees | E |
| There on the base the name of great renown | D |
| - | |
| Oh sad to view the empty pedestal | F |
| And melancholy fancies come and go | G |
| Across my dream whereon a day of woe | G |
| Foreshadowed is I know what will befall | H |
| - | |
| Oh sad And you are saddened also Sweet | I |
| Are not you by this scene although your eye | J |
| Pursues the gold and purple butterfly | J |
| That flutters o'er the wreck strewn at our feet | I |
