Amithaine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAA BBCCCC AAAAAA CCCCDD AACCAA| Who has seen the towers of Amithaine | A |
| Swan throated rising from the main | A |
| Whose tides to some remoter moon | A |
| Flow in a fadeless afternoon | A |
| Who has seen the towers of Amithaine | A |
| Shall sleep and dream of them again | A |
| - | |
| On falcon banners never furled | B |
| Beyond the marches of the world | B |
| They blazon forth the heraldries | C |
| Of dream established sovereignties | C |
| Whose princes wage immortal wars | C |
| For beauty with the bale red stars | C |
| - | |
| Amid the courts of Amithaine | A |
| The broken iris rears again | A |
| Restored from gardens youth has known | A |
| And strains from ruinous viols flown | A |
| The legends tell in Amithaine | A |
| Of her that is its chatelaine | A |
| - | |
| Dreamer beware in her wild eyes | C |
| Full many a sunken sunset lies | C |
| And gazing you shall find perchance | C |
| The fallen kingdoms of romance | C |
| And past the bourns of north and south | D |
| Follow the roses of her mouth | D |
| - | |
| For trumpets blare in Amithaine | A |
| For paladins that once again | A |
| Ride forth to ghostly glamorous wars | C |
| Against the doom preparing stars | C |
| Dreamer awake but I remain | A |
| To ride with them in Amithaine | A |
