Baktschi Serai By Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDCEE| From out the mosques the pious wend their way | A |
| Muezzin voices tremble through the night | B |
| Within the sky the pallid King of Light | B |
| Wraps silvered ermine round him while he may | A |
| And Heaven's harem greets its star array | A |
| One lone white cloud rests in the azure height | B |
| A veiled court lady in some sorrow's plight | B |
| Whom cruel love and day have cast away | A |
| - | |
| The mosques stand there and here tall cypress trees | C |
| There mountains towering black as demons frown | D |
| Which Lucifer in rage from God cast down | D |
| Like sword blades lightning flickers over these | C |
| And on an Arab steed the wild Khan rides | E |
| Who goes to Baktschi Serai which night hides | E |
