Exordium Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDDDC EEEFGGGH| Speak said my soul be stern and adequate | A |
| The sunset falls from Heaven the year is late | B |
| Love waits with fallen tresses at thy gate | B |
| And mourns for perished days | C |
| Speak in the rigor of thy fate and mine | D |
| Ere these scant dying days bright lipped with wine | D |
| All one by one depart resigned divine | D |
| Through desert autumn ways | C |
| - | |
| Speak thou art lonely in thy chilly mind | E |
| With all this desperate solitude of wind | E |
| The solitude of tears that make thee blind | E |
| Of wild and causeless tears | F |
| Speak thou hast need of me heart hand and head | G |
| Speak if it be an echo of thy dread | G |
| A dirge of hope of young illusions dead | G |
| Perchance God hears | H |
