Beyond Utterance Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKLMNOPThere in the midst of gloom the church spire rose | A |
And not a star lit any side of heaven | B |
In glades not far the damp reeds coldly touched | C |
Their sides like soldiers dead before they fall | D |
There in the belfry clung the sleeping bat | E |
Most abject creature hanging like a leaf | F |
Down from the bell tongue silent as the speech | G |
The dead have lost ere they are laid in graves | H |
- | |
A melancholy prelude I would sing | I |
To song more drear while thought soars into gloom | J |
Find me the harbor of the roaming storm | K |
Or end of souls whose doom is life itself | L |
So vague yet surely sad the song I dream | M |
And utter not So sends the tide its roll | N |
Unending chord of horror for a woe | O |
We but half know even when we die of it | P |
