Beethoven Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEEDC| O Master if immortals suffer aught | A |
| Of sadness like to ours and in like sighs | B |
| And with like overflow of darkened eyes | B |
| Disburden them I know not but methought | A |
| What time to day mine ear the utterance caught | A |
| Whereby in manifold melodious wise | B |
| Thy heart's unrestful infelicities | B |
| Rose like a sea with easeless winds distraught | A |
| That thine seemed angel's grieving as of one | C |
| Strayed somewhere out of heaven and uttering | D |
| Lone moan and alien wail because he hath | E |
| Failed to remember the remounting path | E |
| And singing weeping can but weep and sing | D |
| Ever through vasts forgotten of the sun | C |
