A Superscription Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBDC EFFEEFLook in my face my name is Might have been | A |
I am also called No more Too late Farewell | B |
Unto thine ear I hold the dead sea shell | B |
Cast up thy Life's foam fretted feet between | C |
Unto thine eyes the glass where that is seen | C |
Which had Life's form and Love's but by my spell | B |
Is now a shaken shadow intolerable | D |
Of ultimate things unuttered the frail screen | C |
- | |
Mark me how still I am But should there dart | E |
One moment through thy soul the soft surprise | F |
Of that winged Peace which lulls the breath of sighs | F |
Then shalt thou see me smile and turn apart | E |
Thy visage to mine ambush at thy heart | E |
Sleepless with cold commemorative eyes | F |
