Before The Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDDDEFGF| E knew it would rain for all the morn | A |
| A spirit on slender ropes of mist | B |
| Was lowering its golden buckets down | C |
| Into the vapory amethyst | B |
| Of marshes and swamps and dismal fens | D |
| Scooping the dew that lay in the flowers | D |
| Dipping the jewels out of the sea | D |
| To sprinkle them over the land in showers | D |
| We knew it would rain for the poplars showed | E |
| The white of their leaves the amber grain | F |
| Shrunk in the wind and the lightning now | G |
| Is tangled in tremulous skeins of rain | F |
