Fish And Shadow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAB C DEFE G H IJCI KI DE

The salmon trout drifts in the streamA
The soul of the salmon trout floats over the streamA
Like a little wafer of lightB
-
The salmon moves in the sun shot bright shallow seaC
-
As light as the shadow of the fishD
that falls through the waterE
She came into the large room by the stairF
Yawning a little she came with the sleep still upon herE
-
'I am just from bed The sleep is still in my eyesG
'Come I have had a long dream '-
And I That woodH
'And two springs have passed us '-
'Not so far no not so far nowI
There is a place but no one else knows itJ
A field in a valleyC
Qu'ieu sui avinenI
Ieu lo sai '-
-
She must speak of the timeK
Of Arnaut de Mareuil I thought 'qu'ieu sui avinenI
-
Light as the shadow of the fishD
That falls through the pale green waterE
