She Sung Of Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGFGHIJI KLMLNONO| She sung of Love while o'er her lyre | A |
| The rosy rays of evening fell | B |
| As if to feed with their soft fire | C |
| The soul within that trembling shell | B |
| The same rich light hung o'er her cheek | D |
| And play'd around those lips that sung | E |
| And spoke as flowers would sing and speak | D |
| If Love could lend their leaves a tongue | E |
| - | |
| But soon the West no longer burn'd | F |
| Each rosy ray from heaven withdrew | G |
| And when to gaze again I turn'd | F |
| The minstrel's form seem'd fading too | G |
| As if her light and heaven's were one | H |
| The glory all had left that frame | I |
| And from her glimmering lips the tone | J |
| As from a parting spirit came | I |
| - | |
| Who ever loved but had the thought | K |
| That he and all he loved must part | L |
| Fill'd with this fear I flew and caught | M |
| The fading image to my heart | L |
| And cried Oh Love is this thy doom | N |
| Oh light of youth's resplendent day | O |
| Must ye then lose your golden bloom | N |
| And thus like sunshine die away | O |
