Goblin Revel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABABAB CADCADIn gold and grey with fleering looks of sin | A |
I watch them come by two by three by four | B |
Advancing slow with loutings they begin | A |
Their woven measure widening from the door | B |
While music men behind are straddling in | A |
With flutes to brisk their feet across the floor | B |
And jangled dulcimers and fiddles thin | A |
That taunt the twirling antic through once more | B |
- | |
They pause and hushed to whispers steal away | C |
With cunning glances silent go their shoon | A |
On creakless stairs but far away the dogs | D |
Bark at some lonely farm and haply they | C |
Have clambered back into the dusky moon | A |
That sinks beyond the marshes loud with frogs | D |
