Genevieve Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFAAMaid 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
