Psyche Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCCThe butterfly the ancient Grecians made | A |
The soul's fair emblem and its only name | B |
But of the soul escaped the slavish trade | A |
Of mortal life For in this earthly frame | B |
Ours is the reptile's lot much toil much blame | B |
Manifold motions making little speed | C |
And to deform and kill the things whereon we feed | C |
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
