Visions. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAABCDDCCD| The Poet meets Apollo on the hill | A |
| And Pan and Flora and the Paphian Queen | B |
| And infant na ads bathing in the rill | A |
| And dryad maids that dance upon the green | B |
| And fauns and Oreads in the silver sheen | B |
| They wear in summer when the air is still | A |
| He quaffs the wine of life and quaffs his fill | A |
| And sees Creation through its mask terrene | B |
| The dead are wise for they alone can see | C |
| As see the bards as see beyond the dust | D |
| The eyes of babes The dead alone are just | D |
| There is no comfort in the bitter fee | C |
| That scholars pay for fame True sage is he | C |
| Who doubts all doubt and takes the soul on trust | D |
