A Vision Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDCE| Two crowned Kings and One that stood alone | A |
| With no green weight of laurels round his head | B |
| But with sad eyes as one uncomforted | B |
| And wearied with man's never ceasing moan | A |
| For sins no bleating victim can atone | A |
| And sweet long lips with tears and kisses fed | B |
| Girt was he in a garment black and red | B |
| And at his feet I marked a broken stone | A |
| Which sent up lilies dove like to his knees | C |
| Now at their sight my heart being lit with flame | D |
| I cried to Beatrice 'Who are these ' | E |
| And she made answer knowing well each name | D |
| 'AEschylos first the second Sophokles | C |
| And last wide stream of tears Euripides ' | E |
