The Poet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDBCDEFGHGH| What 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 |
