The Poet's Recompense. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDDEFEFGHIJ| His heart's a burning censer filled with spice | A |
| From fairer vales than those of Araby | B |
| Breathing such prayers to heaven that the nice | A |
| Discriminating ear of Deity | C |
| Can cull sweet praises from the rare perfume | D |
| Man cannot know what starry lights illume | D |
| The soaring spirit of his brother man | E |
| He judges harshly with his mind's eyes closed | F |
| His loftiest understanding cannot scan | E |
| The heights where Poet souls have oft reposed | F |
| He cannot feel the chastened influence | G |
| Divine that lights the Ideal atmosphere | H |
| And never to his uninspir d sense | I |
| Rolls the majestic hymn that inspirates the Seer | J |
