So Warmly We Met. (hungarian Air.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGFGHIHJSo warmly we met and so fondly we parted | A |
That which was the sweeter even I could not tell | B |
That first look of welcome her sunny eyes darted | C |
Or that tear of passion which blest our farewell | B |
To meet was a heaven and to part thus another | D |
Our joy and our sorrow seemed rivals in bliss | E |
Oh Cupid's two eyes are not liker each other | D |
In smiles and in tears than that moment to this | E |
- | |
The first was like day break new sudden delicious | F |
The dawn of a pleasure scarce kindled up yet | G |
The last like the farewell of daylight more precious | F |
More glowing and deep as 'tis nearer its set | G |
Our meeting tho' happy was tinged by a sorrow | H |
To think that such happiness could not remain | I |
While our parting tho' sad gave a hope that to morrow | H |
Would bring back the blest hour of meeting again | J |
