She Stood Against The Orient Sun Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEE GHHH IJIJ| She stood against the Orient sun | A |
| Her face inscrutable for light | B |
| A myriad larks in unison | A |
| Sang o'er her soaring out of sight | B |
| - | |
| A myriad flowers around her feet | C |
| Burst flame like from the yielding sod | D |
| Till all the wandering airs were sweet | C |
| With incense mounting up to God | D |
| - | |
| A mighty rainbow shook inclined | E |
| Towards her from the Occident | F |
| Girdling the cloud wrack which enshrined | E |
| Half the light bearing firmament | E |
| - | |
| Lit showers flashed golden o'er the hills | G |
| And trees flung silver to the breeze | H |
| And scattering diamonds fleet foot rills | H |
| Fled laughingly across the leas | H |
| - | |
| Yea Love the skylarks laud but thee | I |
| And writ in flowers thine awful name | J |
| Spring is thy shade dread Ecstasy | I |
| And life a brand which feeds thy flame | J |
