Iter Supremum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABA CCDC EFGE AAHA| Oh what a night for a soul to go | A |
| The wind a hawk and the fields in snow | A |
| No screening cover of leaves in the wood | B |
| Nor a star abroad the way to show | A |
| - | |
| Do they part in peace soul with its clay | C |
| Tenant and landlord what do they say | C |
| Was it sigh of sorrow or of release | D |
| I heard just now as the face turned gray | C |
| - | |
| What if aghast on the shoreless main | E |
| Of Eternity it sought again | F |
| The shelter and rest of the Isle of Time | G |
| And knocked at the door of its house of pain | E |
| - | |
| On the tavern hearth the embers glow | A |
| The laugh is deep and the flagons low | A |
| But without the wind and the trackless sky | H |
| And night at the gates where a soul would go | A |
