Athor And Asar Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCCBDCCC EFGEFGCC| Dedicated to Frank Harris editor of Vanity Fair | A |
| - | |
| On the black night beneath the winter moon | B |
| I clothed me in the limbs of Codia | C |
| Swooning my soul out into her red throat | C |
| So that the glimmer of our skins the tune | B |
| Og our ripe rythm seemed the hideous play | D |
| Of death worms crawling on a corpse afloat | C |
| With life that takes its thirst | C |
| Only from things accurst | C |
| - | |
| Closer than Clodia's clasp Death had me down | E |
| To his black heart and fed upon my breath | F |
| So that we seemed a stilness whiter than | G |
| The stars more silent than the stars a crown | E |
| Of Stars For in the icy kiss of death | F |
| I found that God that is denied to man | G |
| So long as love and thought | C |
| And life avail him aught | C |
