Lyonesse Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BAB ABAB| In Lyonesse was beauty enough men say | A |
| Long Summer loaded the orchards to excess | B |
| And fertile lowlands lengthening far away | A |
| In Lyonesse | B |
| - | |
| Came a term to that land's old favoredness | B |
| Past the sea walls crumbled in thundering spray | A |
| Rolled the green waves ravening merciless | B |
| - | |
| Through bearded boughs immobile in cool decay | A |
| Where sea bloom covers corroding palaces | B |
| The mermaid glides with a curious glance to day | A |
| In Lyonesse | B |
