Young Love Xi - Comfort Of Dante Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDED FGHF| Down where the unconquered river still flows on | A |
| One strong free thing within a prison's heart | B |
| I drew me with my sacred grief apart | B |
| That it might look that spacious joy upon | A |
| And as I mused lo Dante walked with me | C |
| And his face spake of the high peace of pain | D |
| Till all my grief glowed in me throbbingly | E |
| As in some lily's heart might glow the rain | D |
| - | |
| So like a star I listened till mine eye | F |
| Caught that lone land across the water way | G |
| Wherein my lady breathed now breathing is | H |
| 'O Dante ' then I said 'she more than I | F |
| Should know thy comfort go to her I pray ' | - |
| 'Nay ' answered he 'for she hath Beatrice ' | - |
