A Winter Landscape Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDCCD| All night all day in dizzy downward flight | A |
| Fell the wild whirling vague chaotic snow | B |
| Till every landmark of the earth below | B |
| Trees moorlands roads and each familiar sight | A |
| Were blotted out by the bewildering white | A |
| And winds now shrieking loud now whimpering low | B |
| Seemed lamentations for the world old woe | B |
| That death must swallow life and darkness light | A |
| - | |
| But all at once the rack was blown away | C |
| The snowstorm hushing ended in a sigh | D |
| Then like a flame the crescent moon on high | D |
| Leaped forth among the planets pure as they | C |
| Earth vied in whiteness with the Milky Way | C |
| Herself a star beneath the starry sky | D |
