Antagonists Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADEFGGH| WHAT though the neutral sea sever us twain | A |
| In the still night your soul in mine I take | B |
| Your eyes hilarious with passion wake | B |
| And love's delirium is mine again | C |
| When all your body's warmth swirled in my brain | A |
| Your face uplifted like a pallid lake | B |
| Where in my eager lips their thirst could slake | B |
| With deep sighed langourous kisses keener than pain | A |
| Then suddenly through passion's rosy mists | D |
| A shudder trickled like a stream of blood | E |
| In a grim pause we felt and understood | F |
| The everlasting war that was our fate | G |
| The pitiless struggle and primeval hate | G |
| Of old implacable antagonists | H |
