The Companions Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGHG GIGI AJAJ

How few are they that voyage through the nightA
On that eternal questB
For that strange light beyond our lightA
That rest beyond our restB
-
And they who seeking beauty once descryC
Her face to most unknownD
Thenceforth like changelings from the skyE
Must walk their road aloneD
-
So once I dreamed So idle was my moodF
But now before these eyesG
From those foul trenches black with bloodH
What radiant legions riseG
-
And loveliness over the wounded earth awakesG
Like wild flowers in the SpringI
Out of the mortal chrysalis breaksG
Immortal wing on wingI
-
They rise like flowers they wander on wings of lightA
Through realms beyond our kenJ
The loneliest soul is companied tonightA
By hosts of unknown menJ
