O City, Look The Eastward Way Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEBFCEF AA

O city look the Eastward wayA
Beyond thy roofs of shadowy red and greyA
Floats like a lily on the airy streamB
Radiant and vast a cloudC
Around whose billowy headD
Splendour from out the glooming West is shedD
As if it were not ever to take flightE
And on its edge of gleamB
In the clear blue of waning afternoonF
Faint as a spirit slipping from the shroudC
Faint and yet gathering lightE
The MoonF
-
O city dream and prayA
This is thy evensong at close of dayA
