To A Picture Of Eleonora Duse With The Greek Fire, In "francesca Da Rimini" Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFEDFrancesca's life that was a limpid flame | A |
Agleam against the shimmer of a sword | B |
Which falling quenched the flame in blood outpoured | B |
To free the house of Rimino from shame | A |
Francesca's death that blazed aloft her name | A |
In guilty fadeless glory hurling toward | B |
The windy darkness where the tempest roared | B |
Her spirit burdened by the weight of blame | A |
Francesca's life and death are mirrored here | C |
Forever on the face of her who stands | D |
Illumined and intent beside the blaze | E |
Grown one with it and reading without fear | F |
That they shall fare upon the selfsame ways | E |
Plucked forth and cast away by bloody hands | D |
