The Years Restored Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEEEF| I said Their thunders are forever dumb | A |
| Time and the sun find not that former might | B |
| Kings have not thrones and kingdoms in the Night | B |
| Who sit with tarnished crowns and fingers numb | A |
| Dropping the sceptre Of the Past's great sum | A |
| Our hands reach but the symbols recondite | B |
| The broken crypts accord the prying light | B |
| The gold long dim in Herculaneum | A |
| - | |
| I spoke Nor saw in realms with memory zoned | C |
| The restoration of the mightier years | D |
| Free from the dust of dead reality | E |
| The perfect Dream in light eternal throned | E |
| Nor how with thunders uttered silently | E |
| Death strikes loud echoes out of Life that hears | F |
