Santa Decca Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDA EFEEFE GThe Gods are dead no longer do we bring | A |
To grey eyed Pallas crowns of olive leaves | B |
Demeter's child no more hath tithe of sheaves | B |
And in the noon the careless shepherds sing | A |
For Pan is dead and all the wantoning | A |
By secret glade and devious haunt is o'er | C |
Young Hylas seeks the water springs no more | D |
Great Pan is dead and Mary's son is King | A |
- | |
And yet perchance in this sea tranced isle | E |
Chewing the bitter fruit of memory | F |
Some God lies hidden in the asphodel | E |
Ah Love if such there be then it were well | E |
For us to fly his anger nay but see | F |
The leaves are stirring let us watch awhile | E |
