A Picture Seen In A Dream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKBLMNIO| I saw the Goddess of the Evening pause | A |
| Between two mountain pillars Tall as they | B |
| Appeared her stature and her outstretched hands | C |
| Laid on those luminous cold summits hung | D |
| Touching and lingered Earth was at her feet | E |
| Her head inclined then the slow weight of hair | F |
| In distant hue like a waved pine forest | G |
| Upon a mountain down one shoulder fell | H |
| She gazed and there were stars within her eyes | I |
| Not like those lights in heaven which know not what | J |
| They shine upon but like far human hopes | K |
| That rise beyond the end of thwarting day | B |
| In deep hearts wronged with waste and toil they rose | L |
| And while beneath her from the darkening world | M |
| A vapour and a murmur silently | N |
| Floated there came into those gazing eyes | I |
| What should have been were she a mortal tears | O |
