Leili Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDD EFGFCC| The serpents are asleep among the poppies | A |
| The fireflies light the soundless panther's way | B |
| To tangled paths where shy gazelles are straying | C |
| And parrot plumes outshine the dying day | B |
| O soft the lotus buds upon the stream | D |
| Are stirring like sweet maidens when they dream | D |

| - | |
| A caste mark on the azure brows of Heaven | E |
| The golden moon burns sacred solemn bright | F |
| The winds are dancing in the forest temple | G |
| And swooning at the holy feet of Night | F |
| Hush in the silence mystic voices sing | C |
| And make the gods their incense offering | C |
