Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFGHIE J KMany thousand glittering motes | A |
Crowd forward greedily together | B |
In trembling circles | C |
Extravagantly carousing away | D |
For a whole hour rapidly vanishing | E |
They rave delirious a shrill whir | B |
Shivering with joy against death | F |
While kingdoms sunk into ruin | G |
Whose thrones heavy with gold instantly scattered | H |
Into night and legend without leaving a trace | I |
Have never known so fierce a dancing | E |
