Broceliande Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAAA AAA AACAAAABroceliande in the perilous beauty of silence and menacing shade | A |
Thou art set on the shores of the sea down the haze | B |
of horizons untravelled unscanned | A |
Untroubled untouched with the woes of this world | A |
are the moon marshalled hosts that invade | A |
Broceliande | A |
- | |
Only at dusk when lavender clouds in the orient twilight disband | A |
Vanishing where all the blue afternoon they have drifted in solemn parade | A |
Sometimes a whisper comes down on the wind from the valleys of Fairyland | A |
- | |
Sometimes an echo most mournful and faint like the horn of a huntsman strayed | A |
Faint and forlorn half drowned in the murmur of foliage fitfully fanned | A |
Breathes in a burden of nameless regret till I startle | C |
disturbed and affrayed | A |
Broceliande | A |
Broceliande | A |
Broceliande | A |
