A Mountain Spring Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAABCDDCCD| Peace hath an altar there The sounding feet | A |
| Of thunder and the wildering wings of rain | B |
| Against fire rifted summits flash and beat | A |
| And through grey upper gorges swoop and strain | B |
| But round that hallowed mountain spring remain | B |
| Year after year the days of tender heat | A |
| And gracious nights whose lips with flowers are sweet | A |
| And filtered lights and lutes of soft refrain | B |
| A still bright pool To men I may not tell | C |
| The secrets that its heart of water knows | D |
| The story of a loved and lost repose | D |
| Yet this I say to cliff and close leaved dell | C |
| A fitful spirit haunts yon limpid well | C |
| Whose likeness is the faithless face of Rose | D |
