To L.t. In Florence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACBBDBE| You by the Arno shape your marble dream | A |
| Under the cypress and the olive trees | B |
| While I this side the wild wind beaten seas | B |
| Unrestful by the Charles's placid stream | A |
| Long once again to catch the golden gleam | A |
| Of Brunelleschi's dome and lounge at ease | B |
| In those pleached gardens and fair galleries | B |
| And yet perchance you envy me and deem | A |
| My star the happier since it holds me here | C |
| Even so one time beneath the cypresses | B |
| My heart turned longingly across the sea | B |
| To these familiar fields and woodlands dear | D |
| And I had given all Titian's goddesses | B |
| For one poor cowslip or anemone | E |
