Ghosts Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD CECE FDGD HEIJ GKGL

One need not be a chamber to be hauntedA
One need not be a houseB
The brain has corridors surpassingC
Material placeD
-
Far safer of a midnight meetingC
External ghostE
Than an interior confrontingC
That whiter hostE
-
Far safer through an Abbey gallopF
The stones achaseD
Than moonless one's own self encounterG
In lonesome placeD
-
Ourself behind ourself concealedH
Should startle mostE
Assassin hid in our apartmentI
Be horror's leastJ
-
The prudent carries a revolverG
He bolts the doorK
O'erlooking a superior spectreG
More nearL
