Undertone Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABB CDCCC CECFE| Ah me too soon the Autumn comes | A |
| Among these purple plaintive hills | B |
| Too soon among the forest gums | A |
| Premonitory flame she spills | B |
| Bleak melancholy flame that kills | B |
| - | |
| Her white fogs veil the morn that rims | C |
| With wet the moonflow'r's elfin moons | D |
| And like exhausted starlight dims | C |
| The last slim lily disk and swoons | C |
| With scents of hazy afternoons | C |
| - | |
| Her gray mists haunt the sunset skies | C |
| And build the west's cadaverous fire | E |
| Where Sorrow sits with lonely eyes | C |
| And hands that wake her ancient lyre | F |
| Beside the ghost of dead Desire | E |
