Sonnet Lxxxi: Memorial Thresholds Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCDWhat place so strange though unreveal d snow | A |
With unimaginable fires arise | B |
At the earth's end what passion of surprise | B |
Like frost bound fire girt scenes of long ago | A |
Lo this is none but I this hour and lo | A |
This is the very place which to mine eyes | B |
Those mortal hours in vain immortalize | B |
'Mid hurrying crowds with what alone I know | A |
City of thine a single simple door | C |
By some new Power reduplicate must be | D |
Even yet my life porch in eternity | D |
Even with one presence filled as once of yore | C |
Or mocking winds whirl round a chaff strown floor | C |
Thee and thy years and these my words and me | D |
