Farewell, Theresa! (venetian Air.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BCBC DEDEFarewell Theresa yon cloud that over | A |
Heaven's pale night star gathering we see | B |
Will scarce from that pure orb have past ere thy lover | A |
Swift o'er the wide wave shall wander from thee | B |
- | |
Long like that dim cloud I've hung around thee | B |
Darkening thy prospects saddening thy brow | C |
With gay heart Theresa and bright cheek I found thee | B |
Oh think how changed love how changed art thou now | C |
- | |
But here I free thee like one awaking | D |
From fearful slumber thou break'st the spell | E |
'Tis over the moon too her bondage is breaking | D |
Past are the dark clouds Theresa farewell | E |
