Memorials Of A Tour In Italy, 1837 - Xix. - At Florence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAABCDDEFBUnder the shadow of a stately Pile | A |
The dome of Florence pensive and alone | B |
Nor giving heed to aught that passed the while | A |
I stood and gazed upon a marble stone | B |
The laureled Dante's favourite seat A throne | B |
In just esteem it rivals though no style | A |
Be there of decoration to beguile | A |
The mind depressed by thought of greatness flown | B |
As a true man who long had served the lyre | C |
I gazed with earnestness and dared no more | D |
But in his breast the mighty Poet bore | D |
A Patriot's heart warm with undying fire | E |
Bold with the thought in reverence I sate down | F |
And for a moment filled that empty Throne | B |
William Wordsworth
