The Low Sky Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABB CDD EFD GHH

No vulture is here hardly a hawkA
Could long wings or great eyes flyB
Under this low lidded soft skyB
-
On the wide heather the curlew's whistleC
Dies of its echo it has no roomD
Under the low lid of this tombD
-
But one to whom mind and imaginationE
Sometimes used to seem burdensomeF
Is glad to lie down awhile in the tombD
-
Among stones and quietnessG
The mind dissolves without a soundH
The flesh drops into the groundH
