The Incubus Of Time Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDEC FGAAFG| Ill days and dolorous nights and years accurst | A |
| The increase of evil that is twin to life | B |
| Weariness of re animated strife | B |
| And love renewing with the selfsame thirst | A |
| The same delight a drunken Tantalus | C |
| And the thousand chorded monotones of pain | D |
| Irresolubly played and played again | E |
| On broken souls and bodies ruinous | C |
| - | |
| I would the world and all its leaden woe | F |
| Its ennui like incumbent tombs of stone | G |
| And time's each minute as an iron clod | A |
| Were bound about the monstrous throat of God | A |
| And He were drawn in deathless overthrow | F |
| To some blind nadir of the voids unknown | G |
