Cloud-break Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDEFGFG HIHIJKJK LMLM| With a turn of his magical rod | A |
| That extended and suddenly shone | B |
| From the round of his glory some god | A |
| Looks forth and is gone | C |
| - | |
| To the summit of heaven the clouds | D |
| Are rolling aloft like steam | E |
| There's a break in their infinite shrouds | D |
| And below it a gleam | E |
| O'er the drift of the river a whiff | F |
| Comes out from the blossoming shore | G |
| And the meadows are greening as if | F |
| They never were green before | G |
| - | |
| The islands are kindled with gold | H |
| And russet and emerald dye | I |
| And the interval waters outrolled | H |
| Are more blue than the sky | I |
| From my feet to the heart of the hills | J |
| The spirits of May intervene | K |
| And a vapor of azure distills | J |
| Like a breath on the opaline green | K |
| - | |
| Only a moment and then | L |
| The chill and the shadow decline | M |
| On the eyes of rejuvenate men | L |
| That were wide and divine | M |
