Artemis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH JEKE| In the green and flowerless garden I have dreamt | A |
| Lying beneath perennial moons apart | B |
| Whose cypress builded bowers | C |
| And ivy plighted myrtles none shall part | B |
| - | |
| In the funereal maze of larch and laurel | D |
| Across white lawns athwart the spectral mountains | E |
| Seen through the sighing haze | F |
| Of all the high and moon suspended fountains | E |
| - | |
| With feet enshaded by the fruitless green | G |
| Of summer trees that bear no summer blossom | H |
| With wintry lusters laid | I |
| Upon the mounded marble of thy bosom | H |
| - | |
| Thou dost await O mournful enigmatic | J |
| Image of love bewildered Artemis | E |
| Whose tender lips too late | K |
| Or all too soon have sought the wounding kiss | E |
