To Sappho Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEDFGGFDED| Your lines that linger for us down the years | A |
| Like sparks that tell the glory of a flame | B |
| Still keep alight the splendor of your name | B |
| And living still they sting us into tears | C |
| Sole perfect singer that the world has heard | D |
| Let fall from that far heaven of thine | E |
| One golden word | D |
| Oh tell us we shall find beside the Nile | F |
| Held fast in some Egyptian's dusty hand | G |
| Deep covered by the centuries of sand | G |
| The songs long written that were lost awhile | F |
| Sole perfect singer that the world has heard | D |
| Let fall from that far heaven of thine | E |
| This golden word | D |
