The Tryst Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEEAAF FGHIIJ AKKLB MMNN| Flee into some forgotten night and be | A |
| Of all dark long my moon bright company | A |
| Beyond the rumour even of Paradise come | B |
| There out of all remembrance make our home | C |
| Seek we some close hid shadow for our lair | D |
| Hollowed by Noah's mouse beneath the chair | D |
| Wherein the Omnipotent in slumber bound | E |
| Nods till the piteous Trump of Judgment sound | E |
| Perchance Leviathan of the deep sea | A |
| Would lease a lost mermaiden's grot to me | A |
| There of your beauty we would joyance make | F |
| - | |
| A music wistful for the sea nymph's sake | F |
| Haply Elijah o'er his spokes of fire | G |
| Cresting steep Leo or the heavenly Lyre | H |
| Spied tranced in azure of inanest space | I |
| Some eyrie hostel meet for human grace | I |
| Where two might happy be just you and I | J |
| - | |
| Lost in the uttermost of Eternity | A |
| Think in Time's smallest clock's minutest beat | K |
| Might there not rest be found for wandering feet | K |
| Or 'twixt the sleep and wake of Helen's dream | L |
| Silence wherein to sing love's requiem | B |
| - | |
| No no Nor earth nor air nor fire nor deep | M |
| Could lull poor mortal longingness asleep | M |
| Somewhere there nothing is and there lost Man | N |
| Shall win what changeless vague of peace he can | N |
