To Cole, The Painter, Departing For Europe: A Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAACDDCEE| Thine eyes shall see the light of distant skies | A |
| Yet COLE thy heart shall bear to Europe's strand | B |
| A living image of thy native land | B |
| Such as on thine own glorious canvas lies | A |
| Lone lakes savannas where the bison roves | A |
| Rocks rich with summer garlands solemn streams | A |
| Skies where the desert eagle wheels and screams | A |
| Spring bloom and autumn blaze of boundless groves | A |
| Fair scenes shall greet thee where thou goest fair | C |
| But different everywhere the trace of men | D |
| Paths homes graves ruins from the lowest glen | D |
| To where life shrinks from the fierce Alpine air | C |
| Gaze on them till the tears shall dim thy sight | E |
| But keep that earlier wilder image bright | E |
William Cullen Bryant
