The Power Of Eld Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAA ACADAA| Beneath my dome of sleep secure immersed | A |
| And filled of peace such blinded power of scath | B |
| As Samson once employed was loosed in wrath | B |
| And tumult with tempestuous arm dispersed | A |
| The pillared silence came a wind accurst | A |
| That shuddering as from hidden peril fled | A |
| A sign and then the Past's uncharneled dread | A |
| In swarming visions on the darkness burst | A |
| - | |
| Betrayed by Sleep unto the might of Eld | A |
| I knew the terror of its kings the fear | C |
| Of thrones abased by some resistless flood | A |
| Howlings of prophets mingled in mine ear | D |
| With death lament of cities far beheld | A |
| 'Neath drenching flame that made the night as blood | A |
