The Dream-god's Realm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECFEI wandered down Sleep's vast and sunless vale | A |
Where silence and Cimmerian darkness lay | B |
That never moon nor stars disturb nor Day | B |
With sword of golden light Beside the trail | A |
I groping followed through that secret dale | A |
A deep and voiceless river stole its way | B |
Dark Lethe's stream owning whose opiate sway | B |
I onward went without a doubt or fail | A |
- | |
Till lo the atramental veil of night | C |
That stifling hung about behind before | D |
Was sudden parted by some unseen hand | E |
And on my vision leapt a marvelous sight | C |
A green and joyous plain with fair skies o'er | F |
The Dream god's sunlight drenched enchanted land | E |
