Natalia-s Resurrection: Sonnet Xx Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGHIHJKOh pitiful awaking What was Adrian's pleasure | A |
That it had earned for him such bitterness | B |
What his soul's pride that its new tender measure | A |
Should find its echo in a dirge like this | C |
The chaunters chaunting slow were sable priests | D |
Robed for a requiem the laughters clear | E |
Women that wept the untasted marriage feasts | D |
Death's banquet spread and she upon the bier | F |
Natalia's self in her white robe of death | G |
Mourned by the hard eyes of unfriendly men | H |
And with them he her husband with set teeth | I |
And visage pale which ne'er should smile again | H |
In any welcome Adrian neither moved | J |
Nor spoke but gazed upon the form he loved | K |
