At The British Museum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFAGDDDHH

I turn the page and readA
quot I dream of silent verses where the rhymeB
Glides noiseless as an oar quotA
The heavy musty air the black desksC
The bent heads and the rustling noisesD
In the great domeE
VanishF
AndA
The sun hangs in the cobalt blue skyG
The boat drifts over the lake shallowsD
The fishes skim like umber shades through the undulating weedsD
The oleanders drop their rosy petals on the lawnsD
And the swallows dive and swirl and whistleH
About the cleft battlements of Can Grande's castleH
