She Scanned The Record Of Beethoven's Thought Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFFFFFGG| She scanned the record of Beethoven's thought | A |
| And made the dumb chords speak both clear and low | B |
| And spread the dead man's voice till I was caught | C |
| Away and now seemed long and long ago | B |
| Methought in Tellus' bosom still I lay | D |
| While centuries like steeds tramped overhead | E |
| To the wild rhythms that by night and day | D |
| From nature and man's passions still are made | F |
| The music of their motion as they pranced | F |
| Lulled me to flawless ease as of a God | F |
| Never upon me pain or pleasure chanced | F |
| Unknown the dew of bliss or fate's hard rod | F |
| Thus dreamed I But I know our mother Earth | G |
| Waits to give back the peace she reft at birth | G |
