The Laurentians Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDEThese mountains reign alone they do not share | A |
The transitory life of woods and streams | B |
Wrapt in the deep solemnity of dreams | B |
They drain the sunshine of the upper air | A |
Beneath their peaks the huge clouds here and there | A |
Take counsel of the wind which all night screams | B |
Through grey burnt forests where the moonlight beams | B |
On hidden lakes and rocks worn smooth and bare | A |
- | |
These mountains once throned in some primal sea | C |
Shook half the world with thunder and the sun | D |
Pierced not the gloom that clung about their crest | E |
Now with sealed lips toilers from toil set free | C |
Unvexed by fate the part they played being done | D |
They watch and wait in venerable rest | E |
