Love's Infinity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHDear lowly flower that liftest up | A |
Among the grass thy golden cup | A |
I take thee from thy earthly bed | B |
And plant thee in my heart instead | B |
Ye ocean waves that mount on high | C |
As emulous of the lofty sky | C |
'Tis in my breast ye onward sweep | D |
Which as the sea is wide and deep | D |
Great sun from thy supernal height | E |
On flower and wave who pourest light | E |
My soul doth clasp thee in the skies | F |
And thou in me dost set and rise | F |
O thou I love thy lips of fire | G |
Have waked an infinite desire | G |
And unto all things as to thee | H |
Flames out the love that burns in me | H |
