The Low Sky Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABB CDD EFD GHHNo vulture is here hardly a hawk | A |
Could long wings or great eyes fly | B |
Under this low lidded soft sky | B |

On the wide heather the curlew's whistle | C |
Dies of its echo it has no room | D |
Under the low lid of this tomb | D |

But one to whom mind and imagination | E |
Sometimes used to seem burdensome | F |
Is glad to lie down awhile in the tomb | D |

Among stones and quietness | G |
The mind dissolves without a sound | H |
The flesh drops into the ground | H |
