Outlanders Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDADCA| By desert deepened wells and chasmed ways | A |
| And noon high passes of the crumbling nome | B |
| Where the fell sphinx and martichoras roam | B |
| Over black mountains lit by meteor blaze | A |
| Through darkness ending not in solar days | A |
| Beauty the centauress has brought us home | B |
| To shores where chaos climbs in starry foam | B |
| And the white horses of Polaris graze | A |
| - | |
| We gather upon those gulfward beaches rolled | C |
| Driftage of worlds not shown by any chart | D |
| And pluck the fabled moly from wild scaurs | A |
| Though these are scorned by human wharf and mart | D |
| And scorned alike the red primeval gold | C |
| For which we fight the griffins in strange wars | A |
