Devotion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A B C D E F G E H I J K L C| Not lost from my young years | A |
| - | |
| Is silent devotion to a sound of bells | B |
| - | |
| To all churches' dusking altars | C |
| - | |
| And their blue domes heaven wide | D |
| - | |
| To an organ's tune at evening | E |
| - | |
| To wide squares fading in darkness | F |
| - | |
| And to a fountain that splashes softly and quietly | G |
| - | |
| And sweetly like unintelligible children's babbling | E |
| - | |
| I see myself dreaming silently folding the hands | H |
| - | |
| And whispering prayers forgotten for a long time | I |
| - | |
| And early gloom sombering my glance | J |
| - | |
| Since a woman's picture gleams | K |
| - | |
| Out of confused shapes wreathed by sinister grief | L |
| - | |
| And pours into me the chalice of nefarious shudders | C |
