Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKAKLMNOPKQ HRSTKGSister of love lorn Poets Philomel | A |
How many Bards in city garret pent | B |
While at their window they with downward eye | C |
Mark the faint lamp beam on the kennell'd mud | D |
And listen to the drowsy cry of Watchmen | E |
Those hoarse unfeather'd Nightingales of Time | F |
How many wretched Bards address thy name | G |
And hers the full orb'd Queen that shines above | H |
But I do hear thee and the high bough mark | I |
Within whose mild moon mellow'd foliage hid | J |
Thou warblest sad thy pity pleading strains | K |
O I have listen'd till my working soul | A |
Waked by those strains to thousand phantasies | K |
Absorb'd hath ceas'd to listen Therefore oft | L |
I hymn thy name and with a proud delight | M |
Oft will I tell thee Minstrel of the Moon | N |
'Most musical most melancholy' Bird | O |
That all thy soft diversities of tone | P |
Tho' sweeter far than the delicious airs | K |
That vibrate from a white arm'd Lady's harp | Q |
What time the languishment of lonely love | H |
Melts in her eye and heaves her breast of snow | R |
Are not so sweet as is the voice of her | S |
My Sara best beloved of human kind | T |
When breathing the pure soul of tenderness | K |
She thrills me with the Husband's promis'd name | G |
