Caverns Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| Aisles and abysses leagues no man explores | A |
| Of rock that labyrinths and night that drips | B |
| Where everlasting silence broods with lips | B |
| Of adamant o'er earthquake builded floors | A |
| Where forms such as the Demon World adores | A |
| Laborious water carves whence echo slips | B |
| Wild tongued o'er pools where petrifaction strips | B |
| Her breasts of crystal from which crystal pours | A |
| Here where primordial fear the Gorgon sits | C |
| Staring all life to stone in ghastly mirth | D |
| I seem to tread with awe no tongue can tell | E |
| Beneath vast domes by torrent tortured pits | C |
| 'Mid wrecks terrific of the ruined Earth | D |
| An ancient causeway of forgotten Hell | E |
