Atlantis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAA CAADCD| Above its domes the gulfs accumulate | A |
| Far up the sea gales blare their bitter screed | B |
| But here the buried waters take no heed | B |
| Deaf and with welded lips pressed down by weight | A |
| Of the upper ocean Dim interminate | A |
| In cities over webbed with somber weed | A |
| Where galleons crumble and the krakens breed | A |
| The slow tide coils through sunken court and gate | A |
| - | |
| From out the ocean's phosphor starry dome | C |
| A ghostly light is dubitably shed | A |
| On altars of a goddess garlanded | A |
| With blossoms of some weird and hueless vine | D |
| And wing d fleet through skies beneath the foam | C |
| Like silent birds the sea things dart and shine | D |
