Wind. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAA CDDCC EFFEE GHHGG IJJII KLLMM| Oh weird West Wind that comest from the sea | A |
| Sad with the murmur of the weary waves | B |
| Wand'ring for ever through old ocean caves | B |
| Why troublest thou the hearts that list to thee | A |
| With echoes of forgotten misery | A |
| - | |
| The night is black with clouds that thou art bringing | C |
| From the far waters of the stormy main | D |
| Welling their woes forth wearily in rain | D |
| Betwixt us and the light their dark course winging | C |
| And dreary shadows o'er the spirit flinging | C |
| - | |
| Whence is thy power to smite the silent heart | E |
| Till as of old the unseal'd waters run | F |
| Whence is thy magic Oh thou unseen one | F |
| To make still sorrows from their slumbers start | E |
| And play again unsought their bitter part | E |
| - | |
| We are all one with Nature every breeze | G |
| Stealeth about the chambers of the soul | H |
| Haunting their rest with sounds of joy or dole | H |
| And every cloud that creepeth from the seas | G |
| Traileth its shade o'er human sympathies | G |
| - | |
| Blow blow thou weird wind till the clouds be rent | I |
| And starlight glimmer through the riven seams | J |
| Scatter their darkness like the mist of dreams | J |
| Till all the fleeting spectre gloom be spent | I |
| And the bright Future gem the firmament | I |
| - | |
| Blow blow Night's Mene Tekel even now | K |
| Glows on her palace walls and she shall pass | L |
| Like the dim vapour from a burnish'd glass | L |
| And no chill shadows o'er the soul shall go | M |
| Borne by each weeping West Wind to and fro | M |
