The Broker Of Dreams Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC ADAEE FGFGHHII JJKKK| Bring not your dreams to me | A |
| Blown dust and vapour and the running stream | B |
| Saying He too doth dream | B |
| Touched of the moon | C |
| - | |
| Nay wouldst thou vanish see | A |
| Thy darling phantoms | D |
| Bring them then to me | A |
| For my hard business though so soft it seems | E |
| Was ever dreams and dreams | E |
| - | |
| And as some stern eyed broker smiles disdain | F |
| Valuing at nought | G |
| Her bosom's locket with its little chain | F |
| Love's all that Love hath brought | G |
| So must I weigh and measure | H |
| Thy fading treasure | H |
| Sighing to see it go | I |
| As surely as the snow | I |
| - | |
| For I have such sad knowledge of all things | J |
| That shine like dew a little all that sings | J |
| And ends its song in weeping | K |
| Such sowing and such reaping | K |
| There is no cure but sleeping | K |
