Ineffability Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CCCC DEEDThy deepest dolor shalt thou tell | A |
But nevermore thy happiness | B |
Unworded still and utterless | B |
The incredible dark raptures dwell | A |
- | |
Too readily our lips repine | C |
For splendor lost and beauty flown | C |
Our speech is made of earthly moan | C |
And not the praise of things divine | C |
- | |
Ah facile are the songs we sing | D |
To dulcimers that sorrows mute | E |
But joy requires a stronger lute | E |
Of high unshatterable string | D |
