The Summons Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFAGHIJKELMNOAPQ RSETUATRA| I can not bow to woo thee | A |
| With honey words and flower kisses | B |
| And the dew of sweet half truths | C |
| Fallen on the grass of old quaint love tales | D |
| Of broidered days foredone | E |
| Nor in the murmurous twilight | F |
| May I sit below thee | A |
| Worshiping in whispers | G |
| Tremulous as far heard bells | H |
| All these things have I known once | I |
| And passed | J |
| In that gay youth I had but yester year | K |
| And that is gone | E |
| As the shadow of wind | L |
| Nay I can not woo thee thus | M |
| But as I am ever swept upward | N |
| To the centre of all truth | O |
| So must I bear thee with me | A |
| Rapt into this great involving flame | P |
| Calling ever from the midst thereof | Q |
| Follow Follow | R |
| And in the glory of our meeting | S |
| Shall the power be reborn | E |
| And together in the midst of this power | T |
| Must we each outstriving each | U |
| Cry eternally | A |
| I come go thou yet further | T |
| And again Follow | R |
| For we may not tarry | A |
