In My Craft Or Sullen Art Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBDEFFA ABFDGEFFA| In my craft or sullen art | A |
| Exercised in the still night | B |
| When only the moon rages | C |
| And the lovers lie abed | D |
| With all their griefs in their arms | E |
| I labour by singing light | B |
| Not for ambition or bread | D |
| Or the strut and trade of charms | E |
| On the ivory stages | F |
| But for the common wages | F |
| Of their most secret heart | A |
| - | |
| Not for the proud man apart | A |
| From the raging moon I write | B |
| On these spindrift pages | F |
| Nor for the towering dead | D |
| With their nightingales and psalms | G |
| But for the lovers their arms | E |
| Round the griefs of the ages | F |
| Who pay no praise or wages | F |
| Nor heed my craft or art | A |
