Fragment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EAAE FGGF| This I remember clearly from stone to stepping stone | A |
| I bore you in my arms across the quiet stream | B |
| And yet I know not where nor when nor whether in dream | B |
| It was or in some former land or land foreknown | A |
| - | |
| Willows there were and leaves and flowers of arrowhead | C |
| And the tall reeds that lifted up their bronzy maces | D |
| Yet in what place among the long forgotten places | D |
| Or in what untold year or year of ages sped | C |
| - | |
| What chanceful magic brings this moment back to me | E |
| Or calls it from the murk and mist of worlds unborn | A |
| A burst of sun on Lethe boundless and forlorn | A |
| A narrow circle of noon where else is mystery | E |
| - | |
| This I remember only belov d that it was you | F |
| I held with tender care and loving arms that yearned | G |
| Your breasts were light upon my heart your tresses burned | G |
| Between the nameless heavens and nameless waters blue | F |
