A Vision Of Lucifer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDBCDB

I saw a shape with human form and faceA
If such should in apotheosis standB
Deep in the shadows of a desolate landB
His burning feet obtained colossal baseA
And spheral on the lonely arc of spaceA
His head a menace unto heavens unspannedB
Arose with towered eyes that might commandB
The sunless blank horizon of that placeA
-
-
And straight I knew him for the mystic oneC
That is the brother born of human dreamD
Of man rebellious at an unknown rodB
The mind's ideal and the spirit's sunC
A column of clear tame in lands extremeD
Set opposite the darkness that is GodB
