The Second Sonnet Of Bathrolaire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABCBCBC| Now the sweet Dawn on brighter fields afar | A |
| Has walked among the daisies and has breathed | B |
| The glory of the mountain winds and sheathed | B |
| The stubborn sword of Night's last shining star | A |
| In Bathrolaire when Day's old doors unbar | A |
| The motley mask fantastically wreathed | B |
| Pass through a strong portcullis brazen teethed | B |
| And enter glowing mines of cinnabar | A |
| Stupendous prisons shut them out from day | B |
| Gratings and caves and rayless catacombs | C |
| And the unrelenting rack and tourniquet | B |
| Grind death in cells where jetting gaslight gloams | C |
| And iron ladders stretching far away | B |
| Dive to the depths of those eternal domes | C |
