Beauty And Art Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAA BBB CCC DDD EEE FFF GGG EEE

The gods are dead but still for meA
Lives on in wildwood brook and treeA
Each myth each old divinityA
-
For me still laughs among the rocksB
The Naiad and the Dryad's locksB
Drop perfume on the wildflower flocksB
-
The Satyr's hoof still prints the loamC
And whiter than the wind blown foamC
The Oread haunts her mountain homeC
-
To him whose mind is fain to dwellD
With loveliness no time can quellD
All things are real imperishableD
-
To him whatever facts may sayE
Who sees the soul beneath the clayE
Is proof of a diviner dayE
-
The very stars and flowers preachF
A gospel old as God and teachF
Philosophy a child may reachF
-
That cannot die that shall not ceaseG
That lives through idealitiesG
Of Beauty ev'n as Rome and GreeceG
-
That lifts the soul above the clodE
And working out some periodE
Of art is part and proof of GodE
