Taliesin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEEF GEEH IEEJ KEEL

I have been all men known to historyA
Wondering at the world and at time passingB
I have seen evil and the light blessingB
Innocent love under a spring skyC
-
I have been Merlin wandering in the woodsD
Of a far country where the winds wakenE
Unnatural voices my mind brokenE
By a sudden acquaintance with man's rageF
-
I have been Glyn Dwr set in the vast nightG
Scanning the stars for the propitious omenE
A leader of men yet cursed by the crazed womenE
Mourning their dead under the same starsH
-
I have been Goronwy forced from my own landI
To taste the bitterness of the salt oceanE
I have known exile and a wild passionE
Of longing changing to a cold acheJ
-
King beggar and fool I have been all by turnsK
Knowing the body's sweetness the mind's treasonE
Taliesin still I show you a new world risenE
Stubborn with beauty out of the heart's needL
