Ariste Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGG| Let ancient stories round the painter's art | A |
| Who stole from many a maid his Venus' charms | B |
| Till warm devotion fired each gazer's heart | A |
| And every bosom bounded with alarms | B |
| He culled the beauties of his native isle | C |
| From some the blush of beauty's vermeil dyes | D |
| From some the lovely look the winning smile | C |
| From some the languid lustre of the eyes | D |
| - | |
| Low to the finished form the nations round | E |
| In adoration bent the pious knee | F |
| With myrtle wreaths the artist's brow they crowned | E |
| Whose skill Ariste only imaged thee | F |
| Ill fated artist doomed so wide to seek | G |
| The charms that blossom on Ariste's cheek | G |
