Dost Thou Remember. (portuguese Air.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABAABCC DDEAAEAADost thou remember that place so lonely | A |
A place for lovers and lovers only | A |
Where first I told thee all my secret sighs | B |
When as the moonbeam that trembled o'er thee | A |
Illumed thy blushes I knelt before thee | A |
And read my hope's sweet triumph in those eyes | B |
Then then while closely heart was drawn to heart | C |
Love bound us never never more to part | C |
- | |
And when I called thee by names the dearest | D |
That love could fancy the fondest nearest | D |
My life my only life among the rest | E |
In those sweet accents that still enthral me | A |
Thou saidst Ah wherefore thy life thus call me | A |
Thy soul thy soul's the name I love best | E |
For life soon passes but how blest to be | A |
That Soul which never never parts from thee | A |
