Aloof Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDC| The irresponsive silence of the land | A |
| The irresponsive sounding of the sea | B |
| Speak both one message of one sense to me | B |
| Aloof aloof we stand aloof so stand | A |
| Thou too aloof bound with the flawless band | A |
| Of inner solitude we bind not thee | B |
| But who from thy self chain shall set thee free | B |
| What heart shall touch thy heart What hand thy hand | A |
| And I am sometimes proud and sometimes meek | C |
| And sometimes I remember days of old | D |
| When fellowship seem'd not so far to seek | C |
| And all the world and I seem'd much less cold | D |
| And at the rainbow's foot lay surely gold | D |
| And hope felt strong and life itself not weak | C |
