octave sestet quatrain Couplet Роem Structure It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a malden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee; And this malden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me. (from "Annabel Lee" by Edgar Allan Poe) O thou, new-year, delaying long, Delayest the sorrow in my blood, That longs to burst a frozen bud And flood a fresher throat with song. (from "In Memoriam" by Alfred Lord Tennyson)
