A Dream Of Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFH

I dreamed that one had died in a strange placeA
Near no accustomed handB
And they had nailed the boards above her faceA
The peasants of that landB
Wondering to lay her in that solitudeC
And raised above her moundD
A cross they had made out of two bits of woodE
And planted cypress roundD
And left her to the indifferent stars aboveF
Until I carved these wordsG
She was more beautiful than thy first loveF
But now lies under boardsH

William Butler Yeats
