Goddess In The Wood, The Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDC EEFEEFIn a flowered dell the Lady Venus stood | A |
Amazed with sorrow Down the morning one | B |
Far golden horn in the gold of trees and sun | B |
Rang out and held and died She thought the wood | A |
Grew quieter Wing and leaf and pool of light | C |
Forgot to dance Dumb lay the unfalling stream | D |
Life one eternal instant rose in dream | D |
Clear out of time poised on a golden height | C |
- | |
Till a swift terror broke the abrupt hour | E |
The gold waves purled amidst the green above her | E |
And a bird sang With one sharp taken breath | F |
By sunlit branches and unshaken flower | E |
The immortal limbs flashed to the human lover | E |
And the immortal eyes to look on death | F |
