Sonnet--the Love Of Narcissus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCD

Like him who met his own eyes in the riverA
The poet trembles at his own long gazeB
That meets him through the changing nights and daysB
From out great Nature all her waters quiverA
With his fair image facing him for everA
The music that he listens to betraysB
His own heart to his ears by trackless waysB
His wild thoughts tend to him in long endeavourA
-
His dreams are far among the silent hillsC
His vague voice calls him from the darkened plainD
With winds at night strange recognition thrillsC
His lonely heart with piercing love and painD
He knows his sweet mirth in the mountain rillsC
His weary tears that touch him with the rainD
