The Wood Pool Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG GHGH| Here is a voice that soundeth low and far | A |
| And lyric voice of wind among the pines | B |
| Where the untroubled glimmering waters are | A |
| And sunlight seldom shines | B |
| - | |
| Elusive shadows linger shyly here | C |
| And wood flowers blow like pale sweet spirit bloom | D |
| And white slim birches whisper mirrored clear | E |
| In the pool's lucent gloom | D |
| - | |
| Here Pan might pipe or wandering dryad kneel | F |
| To view her loveliness beside the brim | G |
| Or laughing wood nymphs from the byways steal | F |
| To dance around its rim | G |
| - | |
| 'Tis such a witching spot as might beseem | G |
| A seeker for young friendship's trysting place | H |
| Or lover yielding to the immortal dream | G |
| Of one beloved face | H |
