Forgotten Sorrow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACBCDDBA stranger grief than any grief by music told | A |
Is mine regret for unremembered loves and faces | B |
Veiled by the night of some unknown farewell or places | B |
Lost in the dusty ebb and lapse of kingdoms old | A |
On the slow desert rises vague and manifold | A |
Within my heart at summer twilight Through the spaces | B |
Of all oblivion voidly then my soul retraces | B |
Her dead lives given to the marbles and the mould | A |
In dim Palmyra or some pink enormous city | C |
Whose falling columns now the boles of mightier trees | B |
Support in far Siam All grievous love and pity | C |
All loveliness unheld for long and long estranged | D |
Appeals with voices indistinguishably changed | D |
Like bells in deep Atlantis tolled by summer seas | B |
