Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHEIAJKBMOULD COLOURED like the leaf long fallen from | A |
The autumn branch he rises now the Fish | B |
The cold eyes of the gannets see their rock | C |
He has No whither Who was it marked | D |
Earth from the waters Who | E |
Divided space into such lines for us | F |
Giving men To and Fro not Up and Down | G |
This dweller in the ancient element | H |
Knows Space's cross road Who | E |
Closed up the Depth to us He rises now | I |
Mould coloured like the leaf long fallen from | A |
The autumn branch with eyes that are like lamps | J |
Magicians fill with oils from dead men ta'en | K |
Most rootless of all beings the Fish | B |
