Death'divination Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBBD BBBBEE| Death is like moonlight in a lofty wood | A |
| That pours pale magic through the shadowy leaves | B |
| 'T is like the web that some old perfume weaves | B |
| In a dim lonely room where memories brood | C |
| Like snow chilled wine it steals into the blood | D |
| Spurring the pulse its coolness half reprieves | B |
| Tenderly quickening impulses it gives | B |
| As April winds unsheathe an opening bud | D |
| - | |
| Death is like all sweet sense enfolding things | B |
| That lift us in a dream delicious trance | B |
| Beyond the flickering good and ill of chance | B |
| But most is Death like Music's buoyant wings | B |
| That bear the soul a willing Ganymede | E |
| Where joys on joys forevermore succeed | E |
