Antepast Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACB DEDCE| The thought of death to me | A |
| Is like a well in some oasis dim | B |
| Cool gleaming hushed and hidden gratefully | A |
| Among the palms asleep | C |
| At silver evening on the desert's rim | B |
| - | |
| Or as a couch of stone | D |
| Whereon by moonlight in a marble room | E |
| Some fevered king reposes all alone | D |
| So is the hope of sleep | C |
| The inalienable surety of the tomb | E |
