The Exile Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABA CCDC EEFEAgainst my heart your heart is closed you bid me go | A |
What ways are left in all the world for love to know | A |
Desolate oceans and the light of lonely plains | B |
Dead moons that wander in the wastes of ice and snow | A |
- | |
These these I fain would see and find the splendid bourn | C |
Of sunset or the Brazen deserts of the morn | C |
That I might lose this ever aching loneliness | D |
In vaster solitude and love be less forlorn | C |
- | |
Faring to seek with alien sun and alien star | E |
The strange the veiled horizons infinite and far | E |
Spaces of fire and night the skies of steel and gold | F |
Or sunset haunted seas where foamless islands are | E |
