Evensong Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCCDBCCB EFFEFE| Holy Trinity Church | A |
| - | |
| - | |
| THE hectic autumn's dilatory fire | B |
| Has turned this lime tree to a sevenfold brand | C |
| Which self consuming lights the sunless land | C |
| A death to which all poet souls aspire | D |
| Above the graves where all men's vain desire | B |
| Is hushed at last as by a Mother's hand | C |
| And Time confounded Love's blank records stand | C |
| The Evensong swells from the pulsing choir | B |
| - | |
| What incommunicable presence clings | E |
| To this grey church and willowy twilight stream | F |
| Am I the dupe of some delusive dream | F |
| Or like faint fluid phosphorent rings | E |
| On refluent seas doth Shakespeare's spirit gleam | F |
| Pervasive round these old familiar things | E |
