The Dead Poet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBB CBDCBDI dreamed of him last night I saw his face | A |
All radiant and unshadowed of distress | B |
And as of old in music measureless | B |
I heard his golden voice and marked him trace | B |
Under the common thing the hidden grace | B |
And conjure wonder out of emptiness | B |
Till mean things put on beauty like a dress | B |
And all the world was an enchanted place | B |
- | |
And then methought outside a fast locked gate | C |
I mourned the loss of unrecorded words | B |
Forgotten tales and mysteries half said | D |
Wonders that might have been articulate | C |
And voiceless thoughts like murdered singing birds | B |
And so I woke and knew that he was dead | D |
