Terzetto Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CCCC DEDE EDED| Hark o'er the silent waters stealing | A |
| The dash of oars sounds soft and clear | B |
| Through night's deep veil all forms concealing | A |
| Nearer it comes and yet more near | B |
| - | |
| See where the long reflection glistens | C |
| In yon lone tower her watch light burns | C |
| To hear our distant oars she listens | C |
| And listtening strikes the harp by turns | C |
| - | |
| The stars are bright the skies unclouded | D |
| No moonbeam shines no breezes wake | E |
| Is it my love in darkness shrouded | D |
| Whose dashing oar disturbs the lake | E |
| - | |
| O haste sweet maid the cords unrolling | E |
| The holy hermit chides our stay | D |
| Hark from his lonely islet tolling | E |
| His midnight bell shall guide our way | D |
