By The Margin Of The Great Deep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDDD EDED FBGB| When the breath of twilight blows to flame the misty skies | A |
| All its vaporous sapphire violet glow and silver gleam | B |
| With their magic flood me through the gateway of the eyes | A |
| I am one with the twilight's dream | B |
| - | |
| When the trees and skies and fields are one in dusky mood | C |
| Every heart of man is wrapt within the mother's breast | D |
| Full of peace and sleep and dreams in the vasty quietude | D |
| I am one with their hearts at rest | D |
| - | |
| From our immemorial joys of hearth and home and love | E |
| Strayed away along the margin of the unknown tide | D |
| All its reach of soundless calm can thrill me far above | E |
| Word or touch from the lips beside | D |
| - | |
| Aye and deep and deep and deeper let me drink and draw | F |
| From the olden fountain more than light or peace or dream | B |
| Such primeval being as o'erfills the heart with awe | G |
| Growing one with its silent stream | B |
George William Russell
