Not Love, Not War, Nor The Tumultuous Swell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCDNot Love not War nor the tumultuous swell | A |
Of civil conflict nor the wrecks of change | B |
Nor Duty struggling with afflictions strange | B |
Not these 'alone' inspire the tuneful shell | A |
But where untroubled peace and concord dwell | A |
There also is the Muse not loth to range | B |
Watching the twilight smoke of cot or grange | B |
Skyward ascending from a woody dell | A |
Meek aspirations please her lone endeavour | C |
And sage content and placid melancholy | D |
She loves to gaze upon a crystal river | C |
Diaphanous because it travels slowly | D |
Soft is the music that would charm for ever | C |
The flower of sweetest smell is shy and lowly | D |
