To Sara Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDEFFGGHHII EEJKL MMNNOOOne kiss dear maid I said and sighed | A |
Your scorn the little boon denied | A |
Ah why refuse the blameless bliss | B |
Can danger lurk within a kiss | B |
- | |
Yon viewless wand'rer of the vale | C |
The spirit of the western gale | C |
At morning's break at evening's close | D |
Inhales the sweetness of the rose | E |
And hovers o'er th' uninjured bloom | F |
Sighing back the soft perfume | F |
Vigor to the zephyr's wing | G |
Her nectar breathing kisses fling | G |
And he the glitter of the dew | H |
Scatters on the rose's hue | H |
Bashful lo she bends her head | I |
And darts a blush of deeper red | I |
- | |
Too well those lovely lips disclose | E |
The triumphs of the op'ning rose | E |
O fair O graceful bid them prove | J |
As passive to the breath of love | K |
In tender accents faint and low | L |
Well pleased I hear the whispered 'No ' | - |
The whispered 'No' how little meant | M |
Sweet falsehood that endears consent | M |
For on those lovely lips the while | N |
Dawns the soft relenting smile | N |
And tempts with feigned dissuasion coy | O |
The gentle violence of joy | O |
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
