A Dream Of Oblivion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRS| The day of time was darkening to its end | A |
| The sun hung chill within the blackened noon | B |
| Its splendors one with night Form planetrs doomed | C |
| The wail of death to empty silence rose | D |
| The stars were faint against the glooming vast | E |
| Like wavering lights upon a windy plain | F |
| That one by one go out and even as these | G |
| The eternal suns expired and left a void | H |
| A huge black Nirvana of the skies | I |
| A visible Oblivion Then came down | J |
| The darkness and the silence on all things | K |
| The worlds that eddy like wind driven leaves | L |
| Within the airless deep and souls of men | M |
| And on all Life The universe was night | N |
| And this strange troubled dream of Time and Place | O |
| A still vacuity These things I knew | P |
| When lo beneath my feet the steadfast earth | Q |
| Grew nothingness and down the gulf I fell | R |
| And with the darkness and the silence merged | S |
