Ibant Obscuae Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEFFGF| To night I saw three maidens on the beach | A |
| Dark robed descending to the sea | B |
| So slow so silent of all speech | A |
| And visible to me | B |
| Only by that strange drift light dim forlorn | C |
| Of the sun's wreck and clashing surges born | C |
| - | |
| Each after other went | D |
| And they were gathered to his breast | E |
| It seemed to me a sacrament | F |
| Of some stern creed unblest | F |
| As when to rocks that cheerless girt the bay | G |
| They bound thy holy limbs Andromeda | F |
