Chagrin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEFGHIJKLA MNOPQPRSTUC| Caught still as Absalom | A |
| Surely the air hangs | B |
| From the swayless cloud boughs | C |
| Like hair of Absalom | A |
| - | |
| Caught and hanging still | D |
| From the imagined weight | E |
| Of spaces in a sky | F |
| Of mute chagrin my thoughts | G |
| Hang like branch clung hair | H |
| To trunks of silence swung | I |
| With the choked soul weighing down | J |
| Into thick emptiness | K |
| Christ end this hanging death | L |
| For endlessness hangs therefrom | A |
| - | |
| Invisibly branches break | M |
| From invisible trees | N |
| The cloud woods where we rush | O |
| Our eyes holding so much | P |
| Which we must ride dim ages round | Q |
| Ere the hands we dream can touch | P |
| We ride we ride before the morning | R |
| The secret roots of the sun to tread | S |
| And suddenly | T |
| We are lifted of all we know | U |
| And hang from implacable boughs | C |
