Beauty And Hate Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFDE| I have sought and followed you drunk with your sacred wine | A |
| Led out by a laughing wind on a tumbling sea | B |
| On crags amid clouds in cups that allure the bee | B |
| And deep in the gem lit gloom of the tortuous mine | A |
| And on widespread wings where the great worlds dance and shine | A |
| I have sought by the golden light but have bent the knee | B |
| At last where you lie a humble goddess and free | B |
| Naked and flushed in the warmth of a crimson shrine | A |
| The hordes of hate have trampled your blooms in mire | C |
| And cackle and roar as their mockery priests blaspheme | D |
| And sing the marching hymn of a wingless might | E |
| They forge their god in the heat of unholy fire | F |
| The squat strong incubus born of an evil dream | D |
| And it shrinks and crumbles away in the golden light | E |
