The Nemesis Of Suns Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA AACAAAA

Lo what are these the gyres of sun and worldA
Fulfilled with daylight by each toiling sunB
Lo what are these but webs of radiance spunB
Beneath the roof of Night and torn or furledA
By Night at will All opposite powers upwhirledA
Are less than chaff to this imperious oneB
As wind tossed chaff until its sport be doneB
Scattered and lifted up and downward hurledA
-
All gyres are held within the path unspannedA
Of Night's aeonian compass loosely pentA
As with the embrace of lethal tighteningC
weightA
All suns are grasped within the hollow handA
Of Night the godhead sole omnipotentA
Whose other names are Nemesis and FateA
