Memorials Of A Tour In Italy, 1837 - Viii. - Near Rome, In Sight Of St. Peter's Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEDEFF| Long has the dew been dried on tree and lawn | A |
| O'er man and beast a not unwelcome boon | B |
| Is shed the languor of approaching noon | B |
| To shady rest withdrawing or withdrawn | A |
| Mute are all creatures as this couchant fawn | A |
| Save insect swarms that hum in air afloat | C |
| Save that the Cock is crowing a shrill note | C |
| Startling and shrill as that which roused the dawn | A |
| Heard in that hour or when as now the nerve | D |
| Shrinks from the note as from a mistimed thing | E |
| Oft for a holy warning may it serve | D |
| Charged with remembrance of 'his' sudden sting | E |
| His bitter tears whose name the Papal Chair | F |
| And yon resplendent Church are proud to bear | F |
