Fragment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEF GFHIJK LMMAANN| I strayed about the deck an hour to night | A |
| Under a cloudy moonless sky and peeped | B |
| In at the windows watched my friends at table | C |
| In the windows watched my friends at table | C |
| Or playing cards or standing in the doorway | D |
| Or coming out into the darkness Still | E |
| No one could see me | F |
| - | |
| I would have thought of them | G |
| Heedless within a week of battle in pity | F |
| Pride in their strength and in the weight and firmness | H |
| And link'd beauty of bodies and pity that | I |
| This gay machine of splendour 'ld soon be broken | J |
| Thought little of pashed scattered | K |
| - | |
| Only always | L |
| I could but see them against the lamplight pass | M |
| Like coloured shadows thinner than filmy glass | M |
| Slight bubbles fainter than the wave's faint light | A |
| That broke to phosphorus out in the night | A |
| Perishing things and strange ghosts soon to die | N |
| To other ghosts this one or that or I | N |
