Sudden Calm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCEEThere is a bellowing in me as of might | A |
Unfleshed and visionless mangling the air | B |
With horrible convulse as if it bare | B |
The cruel weight of worlds but could not fight | A |
With the thick dropping clods and could but bite | A |
A vapour cloud Oh I will climb the stair | B |
Of the great universe and lay me there | B |
Even at the threshold of his gate despite | A |
The tempest and the weakness and the rush | C |
Of this quick crowding on me Oh I dream | D |
Now I am sailing swiftly as we seem | D |
To do in sleep and I can hear the gush | C |
Of a melodious wave that carries me | E |
On on for ever to eternity | E |
