Announcement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAB CCC DDD EEE FFF GGG HHH IIJ| The night is loud with reeds of rain | A |
| Rejoicing at my window pane | A |
| And murmuring 'Spring comes again ' | B |
| - | |
| I hear the wind take up their song | C |
| And on the sky's vibrating gong | C |
| Beat out and roar it all night long | C |
| - | |
| Then waters where they pour their might | D |
| In foam halloo it down the night | D |
| From vale to vale and height to height | D |
| - | |
| And I thank God that down the deep | E |
| She comes her ancient tryst to keep | E |
| With Earth again who wakes from sleep | E |
| - | |
| From death and sleep that held her fast | F |
| So long pale cerements round her cast | F |
| Her penetential raiment vast | F |
| - | |
| Now Lazarus like within her grave | G |
| She stirs who hears the words that save | G |
| The Christ like words of wind and wave | G |
| - | |
| And hearing bids her soul prepare | H |
| The germs of blossoms in her there | H |
| To make her body sweet and fair | H |
| - | |
| To meet in manifest audience | I |
| The eyes of Spring and reverence | I |
| With beauty God in soul and sense | J |
