Insomnia Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED AFAF GHGH| It seems that dawn will never climb | A |
| The eastern hills | B |
| And clad in mist and flame and rime | A |
| Make flashing highways of the rills | B |
| - | |
| The night is as an ancient way | C |
| Through some dead land | D |
| Whereon the ghosts of Memory | E |
| And Sorrow wander hand in hand | D |
| - | |
| By which man's works ignoble seem | A |
| Unbeautiful | F |
| And grandeur but the ruined dream | A |
| Of some proud queen crowned with a skull | F |
| - | |
| A way past peopled dark and old | G |
| That stretches far | H |
| Its only real thing the cold | G |
| Vague light of sleep's one fitful star | H |
