In The Old Age Of The Soul Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGEHIJKLE| I do not choose to dream there cometh on me | A |
| Some strange old lust for deeds | B |
| As to the nerveless hand of some old warrior | C |
| The sword hilt or the war worn wonted helmet | D |
| Brings momentary life and long fled cunning | E |
| So to my soul grown old | F |
| Grown old with many a jousting many a foray | G |
| Grown old with namy a hither coming and hence going | E |
| Till now they send him dreams and no more deed | H |
| So doth he flame again with might for action | I |
| Forgetful of the council of elders | J |
| Forgetful that who rules doth no more battle | K |
| Forgetful that such might no more cleaves to him | L |
| So doth he flame again toward valiant doing | E |
