To Eleonora Duse I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEDEDEOh beauty that is filled so full of tears | A |
Where every passing anguish left its trace | B |
I pray you grant to me this depth of grace | B |
That I may see before it disappears | C |
Blown through the gateway of our hopes and fears | C |
To death's insatiable last embrace | B |
The glory and the sadness of your face | B |
Its longing unappeased through all the years | C |
No bitterness beneath your sorrow clings | D |
Within the wild dark falling of your hair | E |
There lies a strength that ever soars and sings | D |
Your mouth's mute weariness is not despair | E |
Perhaps among us craven earth born things | D |
God loves its silence better than a prayer | E |
