A Fragment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEFEEGHBut under all my heart believes the day | A |
Was not diviner over Athens nor | B |
The West wind sweeter thro' the Cyclades | C |
Than here and now and from the altar of To day | A |
The eloquent quick tongues of flame uprise | D |
As fervid if not unfaltering as of old | E |
And life atones with speed and plenitude | E |
For coarser texture Our poor present will | F |
Far in the brooding future make a past | E |
Full of the morning's music still and starred | E |
With great tears shining on the eyelids' eaves | G |
Of our immortal faces yearning t'wards the sun | H |
