At The Piano Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBDACC EFGHFHFGG| A woman was playing | A |
| A man looking on | B |
| And the mould of her face | C |
| And her neck and her hair | D |
| Which the rays fell upon | B |
| Of the two candles there | D |
| Sent him mentally straying | A |
| In some fancy place | C |
| Where pain had no trace | C |
| - | |
| A cowled Apparition | E |
| Came pushing between | F |
| And her notes seemed to sigh | G |
| And the lights to burn pale | H |
| As a spell numbed the scene | F |
| But the maid saw no bale | H |
| And the man no monition | F |
| And Time laughed awry | G |
| And the Phantom hid nigh | G |
