Merlin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEEDE| O Merlin how the magic from your eyes | A |
| Bids the world flame about your idle feet | B |
| And makes a marvel of the humming street | B |
| The watchful bush the starry haunted skies | A |
| Dear do you know that all such magic dies | A |
| In foolish hearts that regularly beat | B |
| Blinded with dust the elders in retreat | B |
| Shake their thin locks to prove that they are wise | A |
| God help them in their tameness you are wild | C |
| Hold fast your faith for love has mightier spells | D |
| Than yet your mouth has chattered sung or laughed | E |
| Be drunk still with th enchanted wine you ve quaffed | E |
| Awe spreads her wings above the hut where dwells | D |
| Rapt in his glow of gramarye the child | E |
