Odes Of Anacreon - Ode Xlv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDAAEEFFAA| Within this goblet rich and deep | A |
| I cradle all my woes to sleep | A |
| Why should we breathe the sigh of fear | B |
| Or pour the unavailing tear | C |
| For death will never heed the sigh | D |
| Nor soften at the tearful eye | D |
| And eyes that sparkle eyes that weep | A |
| Must all alike be sealed in sleep | A |
| Then let us never vainly stray | E |
| In search of thorns from pleasure's way | E |
| But wisely quaff the rosy wave | F |
| Which Bacchus loves which Bacchus gave | F |
| And in the goblet rich and deep | A |
| Cradle our crying woes to sleep | A |
