On A Connubial Rupture In High Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IJIJ| I sigh fair injured stranger for thy fate | A |
| But what shall sighs avail thee Thy poor heart | B |
| 'Mid all the 'pomp and circumstance' of state | A |
| Shivers in nakedness Unbidden start | B |
| - | |
| Sad recollections of Hope's garish dream | C |
| That shaped a seraph form and named it Love | D |
| Its hues gay varying as the orient beam | C |
| Varies the neck of Cytherea's dove | D |
| - | |
| To one soft accent of domestic joy | E |
| Poor are the shouts that shake the high arched dome | F |
| Those plaudits that thy public path annoy | E |
| Alas they tell thee Thou'rt a wretch at home | F |
| - | |
| O then retire and weep Their very woes | G |
| Solace the guiltless Drop the pearly flood | H |
| On thy sweet infant as the full blown rose | G |
| Surcharged with dew bends o'er its neighb'ring bud | H |
| - | |
| And oh that Truth some holy spell might lend | I |
| To lure thy wanderer from the syren's power | J |
| Then bid your souls inseparably blend | I |
| Like two bright dewdrops meeting in a flower | J |
