The Flight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDBBDEFFEFEUpon a cloud among the stars we stood | A |
The angel raised his hand and looked and said | B |
Which world of all yon starry myriad | C |
Shall we make wing to The still solitude | D |
Became a harp whereon his voice and mood | D |
Made spheral music round his haloed head | B |
I spake for then I had not long been dead | B |
Let me look round upon the vasts and brood | D |
A moment on these orbs ere I decide | E |
What is yon lower star that beauteous shines | F |
And with soft splendour now incarnadines | F |
Our wings there would I go and there abide | E |
Then he as one who some child's thought divines | F |
That is the world where yesternight you died | E |
