To Charlotte Cushman Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBBBCCCDEE F

Look where a three point star shall weave his beamA
Into the slumb'rous tissue of some streamA
Till his bright self o'er his bright copy seemA
Fulfillment dropping on a come true dreamA
So in this night of art thy soul doth showB
Her excellent double in the steadfast flowB
Of wishing love that through men's hearts doth goB
At once thou shin'st above and shin'st belowB
E'en when thou strivest there within Art's skyC
Each star must o'er a strenuous orbit flyC
Full calm thine image in our love doth lieC
A Motion glassed in a TranquillityD
So triple rayed thou mov'st yet stay'st sereneE
Art's artist Love's dear woman Fame's good queenE
