A Vision Of Lucifer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDBCDBI saw a shape with human form and face | A |
If such should in apotheosis stand | B |
Deep in the shadows of a desolate land | B |
His burning feet obtained colossal base | A |
And spheral on the lonely arc of space | A |
His head a menace unto heavens unspanned | B |
Arose with towered eyes that might command | B |
The sunless blank horizon of that place | A |
- | |
- | |
And straight I knew him for the mystic one | C |
That is the brother born of human dream | D |
Of man rebellious at an unknown rod | B |
The mind's ideal and the spirit's sun | C |
A column of clear tame in lands extreme | D |
Set opposite the darkness that is God | B |
