Be Still Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABAABCDDECFBe still The Hanging Gardens were a dream | A |
That over Persian roses flew to kiss | B |
The curl d lashes of Semiramis | B |
Troy never was nor green Skamander stream | A |
Provence and Troubadour are merest lies | B |
The glorious hair of Venice was a beam | A |
Made within Titian's eye The sunsets seem | A |
The world is very old and nothing is | B |
Be still Thou foolish thing thou canst not wake | C |
Nor thy tears wedge thy soldered lids apart | D |
But patter in the darkness of thy heart | D |
Thy brain is plagued Thou art a frighted owl | E |
Blind with the light of life thou 'ldst not forsake | C |
And Error loves and nourishes thy soul | F |
