Next Turn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHIHI| No pause The buried pipes ring out | A |
| The flour faced Antic runs from sight | B |
| Now Columbine with scarlet pout | A |
| Floats in the smoking moon of light | B |
| Now programmes wave heads bend between | C |
| The roaring Years go past in file | D |
| Soon there's the Transformation Scene | C |
| And then the Footmen down the aisle | D |
| For you must wait before you leave | E |
| This Theatre of Varieties | F |
| Their frozen fingers on your sleeve | E |
| Their most respectful 'Now sir please ' | G |
| Out in the night the Carriage stands | H |
| Plumed with black trees The Post boys grin | I |
| The Coachman beats upon his hands | H |
| Turn after Turn goes on within | I |
