On Mozart Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEFGHIIJJAA| Oh still as with a seraph's voice prolong | A |
| The harmonies of that enchanting song | A |
| Till listening we might almost think we hear | B |
| Beyond this cloudy world in the pure sphere | C |
| Of light acclaiming hosts the throne surrounding | D |
| The long hosannahs evermore resounding | D |
| Soft voices interposed in pure accord | E |
| Breathing a holier charm Oh every word | F |
| Falls like a drop of silver as the strain | G |
| In winding sweetness swells and sinks again | H |
| Sing ever thus beguiling life's long way | I |
| As here poor pilgrims of the earth we stray | I |
| And lady when thy pilgrimage shall end | J |
| And late the shades of the long night descend | J |
| May sister seraphs welcome with a song | A |
| And gently say Why have you stayed so long | A |
