White Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDA EEFAAF| Methought the world was bound with final frost | A |
| The sun made hueless as with fear and awe | B |
| Illumined still the lands it could not thaw | C |
| Then on my road with instant evening crost | A |
| Death stood and in its dusky veils enwound | A |
| Mine eyes forgot the light until I came | D |
| Where poured the inseparate unshadowed flame | D |
| Of phantom suns in self irradiance drowned | A |
| - | |
| Death lay revealed in all its haggardness | E |
| Immitigable wastes horizonless | E |
| Profundities that held nor bar nor veil | F |
| All hues wherewith the suns and worlds were dyed | A |
| In light invariable nullifed | A |
| All darkness rendered shelterless and pale | F |
