The Atoning Yesterday Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEFCC| Ye daffodilian days whose fallen towers | A |
| Shielded our paradisal prime from ill | B |
| Fair Past fair motherhood let come what will | B |
| We being yours defy the anarch powers | A |
| For us the happy tidings fell in showers | A |
| Enjewelling the wind from every hill | B |
| We drained the sun against the winter's chill | B |
| Our ways were barricadoed in with flowers | A |
| - | |
| And if from skyey minsters now unhoused | C |
| Earth's massy workings at the forge we hear | D |
| The black roll of the congregated sea | E |
| And war's live hoof O yet last year last year | F |
| We were the lark lulled shepherdlings that drowsed | C |
| Grave deep at noon in grass of Arcady | C |
