The Rift (song: Minor Mode) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBA ACACCA| 'Twas just at gnat and cobweb time | A |
| When yellow begins to show in the leaf | B |
| That your old gamut changed its chime | A |
| From those true tones of span so brief | B |
| That met my beats of joy of grief | B |
| As rhyme meets rhyme | A |
| - | |
| So sank I from my high sublime | A |
| We faced but chancewise after that | C |
| And never I knew or guessed my crime | A |
| Yes 'twas the date or nigh thereat | C |
| Of the yellowing leaf at moth and gnat | C |
| And cobweb time | A |
