Days And Dreams Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGFH IJIJ KLKL EMNM EOEO PQPQ

He dreamed of hills so deep with woodsA
Storm barriers on the summer skyB
Are not more dark where plunged loud floodsC
Down rocks of sullen dyeB
-
Flat ways were his where sparsely grewD
Gnarled iron colored oaks with riftsE
Between dead boughs of Eden blueD
Ways where the speedwell liftsE
-
Its shy appeal and spreading farF
The gold the fallen gold of dawnG
Staining each blossom's balanced starF
Hollows of cowslips wanH
-
Where 'round the feet the lady smockI
And pearl pale lady slipper creepJ
White butterflies upon them rockI
Or seal brown suck and sleepJ
-
At eve the west shoots crooked fireK
Athwart a half moon leaning lowL
While one white arrowy star throbs higherK
In curdled honey glowL
-
Was it some elfin euphrasyE
That purged his spirit so that thereM
Blue harebells by those ways that beN
Seemed summoning to prayerM
-
For all the death within him praysE
Not he his higher self whose loveO
Fire filled the flesh Its light still staysE
Touched by the soul aboveO
-
They found him dead his songs besideP
Six stairs above the din and dustQ
Of life and that for which he diedP
Denied him even a crustQ
