    Ballad

    “
    O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms,
    Alone and palely loitering?
    The sedge has wither’d from the lake,
    And no birds sing …
    And this is why I sojourn here
    Alone and palely loitering,
    Though the sedge is wither’d from the lake,
    And no birds sing.”

    Example: La Belle Dame sans Merci (By John Keats)
