The Red Sunsets Ii, 1883 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBC DDEDEF| THE boding sky was charactered with cloud | A |
| The scripture of the storm but high in air | B |
| Where the unfathomed zenith still was bare | B |
| A pure expanse of rose flushed violet glowed | C |
| And kindling into crimson light o'erflowed | C |
| The hurrying wrack with such a blood red glare | B |
| That heaven igniting wildly seemed to flare | B |
| On the dazed eyes of many an awe struck crowd | C |
| - | |
| And in far lands folk presaged with blanched lips | D |
| Disastrous wars earthquakes and foundering ships | D |
| Such whelming floods as never dykes could stem | E |
| Or some proud empire's ruin and eclipse | D |
| Lo such a sky they cried as burned o'er them | E |
| Once lit the sacking of Jerusalem | F |
