To A Castillan Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCADDAWe held the book together timidly | A |
Whose antique music in an alien tongue | B |
Once rose among the dew drenched vines that hung | B |
Beneath a high Castilian balcony | A |
I felt the lute strings' ancient ecstasy | A |
And while he read my love filled heart was stung | B |
And throbbed as where an ardent bird has clung | B |
The branches tremble on a blossomed tree | A |
Oh lady for whose sake the song was made | C |
Laid long ago in some still cypress shade | C |
Divided from the man who longed for thee | A |
Here in a land whose name he never heard | D |
His song brought love as April brings the bird | D |
And not a breath divides my love from me | A |
