From The Arabic, An Imitation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADCD EFBFEDBD

MY faint spirit was sitting in the lightA
nbsp nbsp nbsp Of thy looks my loveB
nbsp nbsp nbsp It panted for thee like the hind at noonC
nbsp nbsp nbsp For the brooks my loveB
Thy barb whose hoofs outspeed the tempest's flightA
nbsp nbsp nbsp Bore thee far from meD
nbsp nbsp nbsp My heart for my weak feet were weary soonC
nbsp nbsp nbsp Did companion theeD
-
Ah fleeter far than fleetest storm or steedE
nbsp nbsp nbsp Or the death they bearF
nbsp nbsp nbsp The heart which tender thought clothes like a doveB
nbsp nbsp nbsp With the wings of careF
In the battle in the darkness in the needE
nbsp nbsp nbsp Shall mine cling to theeD
nbsp nbsp nbsp Nor claim one smile for all the comfort loveB
nbsp nbsp nbsp It may bring to theeD
