The Fen-fire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HEHEThe misty rain makes dim my face | A |
The night's black cloak is o'er me | B |
I tread the dripping cypress place | A |
A flickering light before me | B |
- | |
Out of the death of leaves that rot | C |
And ooze and weedy water | D |
My form was breathed to haunt this spot | C |
Death's immaterial daughter | D |
- | |
The owl that whoops upon the yew | E |
The snake that lairs within it | F |
Have seen my wild face flashing blue | E |
For one fantastic minute | G |
- | |
But should you follow where my eyes | H |
Like some pale lamp decoy you | E |
Beware lest suddenly I rise | H |
With love that shall destroy you | E |
