The Coming Of Isis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBACB DEDFDESo Lucius prayed and sudden from afar | A |
Floated the locks of Isis shone the bright | B |
Crown that is tressed with berry snake and star | A |
She came in deep blue raiment of the night | B |
Above her robes that now were snowy white | B |
Now golden as the moons of harvest are | A |
Now red now flecked with many a cloudy bay | C |
Now stained with all the lustre of the light | B |
- | |
Then he who saw her knew her and he knew | D |
The awful symbols borne in either hand | E |
The golden urn that laves Demeter's dew | D |
The handles wreathed with asps the mystic wand | F |
The shaken seistron's music tinkling through | D |
The temples of that old Osirian land | E |
