The Dead Poet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBB CBDCBD

I dreamed of him last night I saw his faceA
All radiant and unshadowed of distressB
And as of old in music measurelessB
I heard his golden voice and marked him traceB
Under the common thing the hidden graceB
And conjure wonder out of emptinessB
Till mean things put on beauty like a dressB
And all the world was an enchanted placeB
-
And then methought outside a fast locked gateC
I mourned the loss of unrecorded wordsB
Forgotten tales and mysteries half saidD
Wonders that might have been articulateC
And voiceless thoughts like murdered singing birdsB
And so I woke and knew that he was deadD

Lord Alfred Douglas
