Three Faces Iii. Venice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BAB ABAB| Out of the dark pure twilight where the stream | A |
| Flows glimmering streaked by many a birdlike bark | B |
| That skims the gloom whence towers and bridges gleam | A |
| Out of the dark | B |
| - | |
| Once more a face no glance might choose but mark | B |
| Shone pale and bright with eyes whose deep slow beam | A |
| Made quick the twilight lifeless else and stark | B |
| - | |
| The same it seemed or mystery made it seem | A |
| As those before beholden but St Mark | B |
| Ruled here the ways that showed it like a dream | A |
| Out of the dark | B |
