Late Autumn In Venice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCDCEEFFGGGDHG| After Rilke | A |
| - | |
| The city floats no longer like a bait | B |
| To hook the nimble darting summer days | C |
| The glazed and brittle palaces pulsate and radiate | D |
| And glitter Summer's garden sways | C |
| A heap of marionettes hanging down and dangled | E |
| Leaves tired torn turned upside down and strangled | E |
| Until from forest depths from bony leafless trees | F |
| A will wakens the admiral lolling long at ease | F |
| Has been commanded overnight suddenly | G |
| In the first dawn all galleys put to sea | G |
| Waking then in autumn chill amid the harbor medley | G |
| The fragrance of pitch pennants aloft the butt | D |
| Of oars all sails unfurled the fleet | H |
| Awaits the great wind radiant and deadly | G |
