A Shadow. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEFED| The world to day is radiant as I ne'er | A |
| Could picture it in wildest dreaming when | B |
| For long long hours I lay in flowery glen | B |
| Or wooded copse and tried in vain to tear | A |
| The glamour from my eyes and face the glare | A |
| And tumult of the busy world of men | B |
| I staked my all and won and ne'er again | B |
| Can my blest spirit know a heart's despair | A |
| - | |
| And yet and yet why should it be that now | C |
| When all my heart has longed for is at last | D |
| Within my grasp and I should be at rest | E |
| A ghostly Something rising in the glow | F |
| Of Love's own fire an uninvited guest | E |
| Taunts me with just one memory of the past | D |
