Macbeth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFGFHIJKLMBFNOF| Rose like dim battlements the hills and reared | A |
| Steep crags into the fading primrose sky | B |
| But in the desolate valleys fell small rain | C |
| Mingled with drifting cloud I saw one come | D |
| Like the fierce passion of that vacant place | E |
| His face turned glittering to the evening sky | B |
| His eyes like grey despair fixed satelessly | F |
| On the still rainy turrets of the storm | G |
| And all his armour in a haze of blue | F |
| He held no sword bare was his hand and clenched | H |
| As if to hide the inextinguishable blood | I |
| Murder had painted there And his wild mouth | J |
| Seemed spouting echoes of deluded thoughts | K |
| Around his head like vipers all distort | L |
| His locks shook heavy laden at each stride | M |
| If fire may burn invisible to the eye | B |
| O if despair strive everlastingly | F |
| Then haunted here the creature of despair | N |
| Fanning and fanning flame to lick upon | O |
| A soul still childish in a blackened hell | F |
