To George Sterling (what) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEDED| What questioners have met the gaze of Time | A |
| Whose searchless eyes unyielding theirs denied | B |
| Till sank the casual monarch's baseless pride | B |
| And transitory fames of sword or rhyme | A |
| What fames from gulfs monotonous shall climb | A |
| Whose eyes ephemeral unverified | B |
| Shall that enduring scrutiny abide | B |
| As men that face the noontide sun sublime | A |
| - | |
| One after one the searchers stare and fall | C |
| Abased before its unabated scorn | D |
| But this thy fame in days eventual | E |
| 'Mid ruins desolate shall stand unworn | D |
| Confronting Time in vastness musical | E |
| Like Memnon's statue staring at the morn | D |
