Ages Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIHJ K KL

In that stone head obscenityA
Has been preserved a thousand yearsB
A bible leaf of familiesC
Have shuddered at the pointed earsB
-
The sword that hangs upon the wallD
Is notched the length of its long bladeE
And children at the village schoolF
Dream of the trusses it has mowedG
-
Close against the lichened towerH
Still lives a witch Around her headI
She wears a shawl and white as flourH
Her lips count every step she treadsJ
-
But when the dusk born lovers standK
The figure sobs 'Oh where's my soul '-
The sword sighs for the long dead handK
The old hag huddles from the owlL
