Stanza Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB AFAF AGAG| Often rebuked yet always back returning | A |
| To those first feelings that were born with me | B |
| And leaving busy chase of wealth and learning | A |
| For idle dreams of things which cannot be | B |
| - | |
| Today I will seek not the shadowy region | C |
| Its unsustaining vastness waxes drear | D |
| And visions rising legion after legion | C |
| Bring the unreal world too strangely near | D |
| - | |
| I'll walk but not in old heroic traces | E |
| And not in paths of high morality | B |
| And not among the half distingusihed faces | E |
| The clouded forms of long past history | B |
| - | |
| I'll walk where my own nature would be leading | A |
| It vexes me to choose another guide | F |
| Where the grey flocks in ferny glens are feeding | A |
| Where the wild wind blows on the mountain side | F |
| - | |
| What have those lonely mountains worth revealing | A |
| More glory and more grief than I can tell | G |
| The earth that wakes one human heart to feeling | A |
| Can centre both the worlds of heaven and hell | G |
