Correspondences Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BCBC DAD AEE| Nature is a temple whose living colonnades | A |
| Breathe forth a mystic speech in fitful sighs | A |
| Man wanders among symbols in those glades | A |
| Where all things watch him with familiar eyes | A |
| - | |
| Like dwindling echoes gathered far away | B |
| Into a deep and thronging unison | C |
| Huge as the night or as the light of day | B |
| All scents and sounds and colors meet as one | C |
| - | |
| Perfumes there are as sweet as the oboe's sound | D |
| Green as the prairies fresh as a child's caress | A |
| And there are others rich corrupt profound | D |
| - | |
| And of an infinite pervasiveness | A |
| Like myrrh or musk or amber the excite | E |
| The ecstasies of sense the soul's delight | E |
