That Music Always Round Me Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDEFGAHAIJKLM| THAT music always round me unceasing unbeginning yet long untaught | A |
| I did not hear | B |
| But now the chorus I hear and am elated | A |
| A tenor strong ascending with power and health with glad notes of | C |
| day break I hear | B |
| A soprano at intervals sailing buoyantly over the tops of immense | D |
| waves | E |
| A transparent bass shuddering lusciously under and through the | F |
| universe | G |
| The triumphant tutti the funeral wailings with sweet flutes and | A |
| violins all these I fill myself with | H |
| I hear not the volumes of sound merely I am moved by the exquisite | A |
| meanings | I |
| I listen to the different voices winding in and out striving | J |
| contending with fiery vehemence to excel each other in emotion | K |
| I do not think the performers know themselves but now I think I | L |
| begin to know them | M |
