The Wind-threnody Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAB CDDCD EFBEFAs from the western mountains fade | A |
The glories of the afterglow | B |
A zephyr cometh soft and low | B |
Like gentle plaintive music played | A |
On tuneful lyres of long ago | B |
- | |
It steals amid the choric pines | C |
That at its thrilling touch resound | D |
Vibrating with a mournful sound | D |
A plaint for Day that slow declines | C |
Beyond the distant western bound | D |
- | |
The music grows and swells amain | E |
A grand full volumed melody | F |
Sad sorrowful inexpressibly | B |
And laden with secret world old pain | E |
Nature's eternal threnody | F |
