The Mystic Meaning Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFFE| Alas that we are deaf and blind | A |
| To meanings all about us hid | B |
| What secrets lurk the woods amid | B |
| What prophecies are on the wind | A |
| - | |
| What tidings do the billows bring | C |
| And cry in vain upon the strand | D |
| If we might only understand | D |
| The brooklet's cryptic murmuring | C |
| - | |
| The tongues of earth and air are strange | E |
| And yet who knows one little word | F |
| Learned from the language of the bird | F |
| Might make us lords of Fate and Change | E |
