In The Garden Iii: An Interior Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| THE grass around my limbs is deep and sweet | A |
| Yonder the house has lost its shadow wholly | B |
| The blinds are dropped and softly now and slowly | B |
| The day flows in and floats a calm retreat | A |
| Of temper'd light where fair things fair things meet | A |
| White busts and marble Dian make it holy | B |
| Within a niche hangs Durer's Melancholy | B |
| Brooding and should you enter there will greet | A |
| Your sense with vague allurement effluence faint | C |
| Of one magnolia bloom fair fingers draw | D |
| From the piano Chopin's heart complaint | C |
| Alone white robed she sits a fierce macaw | D |
| On the verandah proud of plume and paint | C |
| Screams insolent despot showing beak and claw | D |
