Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBCCDDEEFFGGHHAA AAIII

Faeries must be in the woodsA
Or the satyrs' laughing broodsA
Tritons in the summer seaA
Else how could the dead things beA
Half so lovely as they areB
How could wealth of star on starB
Dusted o'er the frosty nightC
Fill thy spirit with delightC
And lead thee from this care of thineD
Up among the dreams divineD
Were it not that each and allE
Of them that walk the heavenly hallE
Is in truth a happy isleF
Where eternal meadows smileF
And golden globes of fruit are seenG
Twinkling through the orchards greenG
Were the Other People goH
On the bright sward to and froH
Atoms dead could never thusA
Stir the human heart of usA
Unless the beauty that we seeA
The veil of endless beauty beA
Filled full of spirits that have trodI
Far hence along the heavenly sodI
And see the bright footprints of GodI
