Mists In Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST UDVWX| Now by the cool declining year condescend | A |
| Descend the copious exhalations check'd | B |
| As up the middle sky unseen they stole | C |
| And roll the doubling fogs around the hill | D |
| No more the mountain horrid vast sublime | E |
| Who pours a sweep of rivers from his sides | F |
| And high between contending kingdoms rears | G |
| The rocky long division fills the view | H |
| With great variety but in a night | I |
| Of gath'ring vapour from the baffled sense | J |
| Sinks dark and dreary thence expanding far | K |
| The huge dusk gradual swallows up the plain | L |
| Vanish the woods the dim seen river seems | M |
| Sullen and slow to roll the misty wave | N |
| Ev'n in the height of noon oppress'd the sun | O |
| Sheds weak and blunt his wide refracted ray | P |
| Whence glaring oft with many a broaden'd orb | Q |
| He frights the nations Indistinct on earth | R |
| Seen through the turbid air beyond the life | S |
| Objects appear and wilder'd o'er the waste | T |
| The shepherd stalks gigantic till at last | U |
| Wreath'd dun around in deeper circles still | D |
| Successive closing sits the gen'ral fog | V |
| Unbounded o'er the world and mingling thick | W |
| A formless gray confusion covers all | X |
