A Swarm Of Gnats Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFGHIE J K

Many thousand glittering motesA
Crowd forward greedily togetherB
In trembling circlesC
Extravagantly carousing awayD
For a whole hour rapidly vanishingE
They rave delirious a shrill whirB
Shivering with joy against deathF
While kingdoms sunk into ruinG
Whose thrones heavy with gold instantly scatteredH
Into night and legend without leaving a traceI
Have never known so fierce a dancingE
