Vivien Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDDDEADFA| Her eyes under their lashes were blue pools | A |
| Fringed round with lilies her bright hair unfurled | B |
| Clothed her as sunshine clothes the summer world | B |
| Her robes were gauzes gold and green and gules | A |
| All furry things flocked round her from her hand | C |
| Nibbling their foods and fawning at her feet | D |
| Two peacocks watched her where she made her seat | D |
| Beside a fountain in Broceliande | D |
| Sometimes she sang Whoever heard forgot | D |
| Errand and aim and knights at noontide here | E |
| Riding from fabulous gestes beyond the seas | A |
| Would follow tranced and seek and find her not | D |
| But wake that night lost by some woodland mere | F |
| Powdered with stars and rimmed with silent trees | A |
