The Coming Of Isis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBACB DEDFDE

So Lucius prayed and sudden from afarA
Floated the locks of Isis shone the brightB
Crown that is tressed with berry snake and starA
She came in deep blue raiment of the nightB
Above her robes that now were snowy whiteB
Now golden as the moons of harvest areA
Now red now flecked with many a cloudy bayC
Now stained with all the lustre of the lightB
-
Then he who saw her knew her and he knewD
The awful symbols borne in either handE
The golden urn that laves Demeter's dewD
The handles wreathed with asps the mystic wandF
The shaken seistron's music tinkling throughD
The temples of that old Osirian landE
