They Lived Enamoured Of The Lovely Moon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDECEThey lived enamoured of the lovely moon | A |
The dawn and twilight on their gentle lake | B |
Then Passion marvellously born did shake | B |
Their breast and drave them into the mid noon | A |
Their lives did shrink to one desire and soon | A |
They rose fire eyed to follow in the wake | B |
Of one eternal thought when sudden brake | B |
Their hearts They died in miserable swoon | A |
Of all their agony not a sound was heard | C |
The glory of the Earth is more than they | D |
She asks her lovely image of the day | D |
A flower grows a million boughs are green | E |
And over moving ocean waves the bird | C |
Chases his shadow and is no more seen | E |
