To Eleonora Duse Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCD| Your beauty lives in mystic melodies | A |
| And all the light about you breathes a song | B |
| Your voice awakes the dreaming airs that throng | B |
| Within our music haunted memories | A |
| The sirens' strain that sank within the seas | A |
| When men forgot to listen floats along | B |
| Your voice's undercurrent soft and strong | B |
| Sicilian shepherds pipe beneath the trees | A |
| Along the purple hills of drifted sand | C |
| A lone Egyptian plays an ancient flute | D |
| At dawn the Memnon gives his old salute | D |
| Beside the Nile by desert breezes fanned | C |
| The music faints about you as you stand | C |
| And with the Orphean lay it trembles mute | D |
