A Woman Homer Sung Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEE FGFFGH IBJJBKK

If any man drew nearA
When I was youngB
I thought 'He holds her dear 'C
And shook with hate and fearA
But O 'twas bitter wrongD
If he could pass her byE
With an indifferent eyeE
-
Whereon I wrote and wroughtF
And now being greyG
I dream that I have broughtF
To such a pitch my thoughtF
That coming time can sayG
'He shadowed in a glassH
What thing her body was '-
-
For she had fiery bloodI
When I was youngB
And trod so sweetly proudJ
As 'twere upon a cloudJ
A woman Homer sungB
That life and letters seemK
But an heroic dreamK

William Butler Yeats
