In Ages Past Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFDE| I Stood upon a height and listened to | A |
| The solemn psalmody of many pines | B |
| And with the sound I seemed to see long lines | B |
| Of mountains rise blue peak on cloudy blue | A |
| And hear the roar of torrents hurling through | A |
| Riven ravines or from the crags' gaunt spines | B |
| Pouring wild hair where as an eyeball shines | B |
| A mountain pool shone clear and cold of hue | A |
| And then my soul remembered felt how once | C |
| In ages past 't was here that I a Faun | D |
| Startled an Oread at her morning bath | E |
| Who stood revealed her beauty like the sun's | F |
| Veiled in her hair heavy with dews of dawn | D |
| Through which like stars burnt blue her eyes' bright wrath | E |
