To A Picture Of Eleonora Duse As Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDECEOh flower sweet face and bended flower like head | A |
Oh violet whose purple cannot pale | B |
Or forest fragrance ever faint or fail | B |
Or breath and beauty pass among the dead | A |
Yea very truly has the poet said | A |
No mist of years or might of death avail | B |
To darken beauty brighter thro' the veil | B |
We see the glimmer of its wings outspread | A |
Oh face embowered and shadowed by thy hair | C |
Some lotus blossom on a darkened stream | D |
If ever I have pictured in a dream | D |
My guardian angel she is like to this | E |
Her eyes know joy yet sorrow lingers there | C |
And on her lips the shadow of a kiss | E |
