Genevieve Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFAA| Maid of my love sweet Genevieve | A |
| In beauty's light you glide along | B |
| Your eye is like the star of eve | A |
| And sweet your voice as seraph's song | B |
| Yet not your heavenly beauty gives | C |
| This heart with passion soft to glow | D |
| Within your soul a voice there lives | C |
| It bids you hear the tale of woe | D |
| When sinking low the suff'rer wan | E |
| Beholds no hand outstretched to save | F |
| Fair as the bosom of the swan | E |
| That rises graceful o'er the wave | F |
| I've seen your breast with pity heave | A |
| And therefore love I you sweet Genevieve | A |
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
