The Infinite Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO| This lonely hill to me was ever dear | A |
| This hedge which shuts from view so large a part | B |
| Of the remote horizon As I sit | C |
| And gaze absorbed I in my thought conceive | D |
| The boundless spaces that beyond it range | E |
| The silence supernatural and rest | F |
| Profound and for a moment I am calm | G |
| And as I listen to the wind that through | H |
| These trees is murmuring its plaintive voice | I |
| I with that infinite compare | J |
| And things eternal I recall and all | K |
| The seasons dead and this that round me lives | L |
| And utters its complaint Thus wandering | M |
| My thought in this immensity is drowned | N |
| And sweet to me is shipwreck on this sea | O |
