The Poet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDBCDEFGHGHWhat instinct forces man to journey on | A |
Urged by a longing blind but dominant | B |
Nothing he sees can hold him nothing daunt | C |
His never failing eagerness The sun | D |
Setting in splendour every night has won | D |
His vassalage those towers flamboyant | B |
Of airy cloudland palaces now haunt | C |
His daylight wanderings Forever done | D |
With simple joys and quiet happiness | E |
He guards the vision of the sunset sky | F |
Though faint with weariness he must possess | G |
Some fragment of the sunset's majesty | H |
He spurns life's human friendships to profess | G |
Life's loneliness of dreaming ecstasy | H |
