Mohini Chatterjee Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFG FHIJIKLDLMNMNANA

I asked if I should prayA
But the Brahmin saidB
'pray for nothing sayA
Every night in bedB
'I have been a kingC
I have been a slaveD
Nor is there anythingC
Fool rascal knaveD
That I have not beenE
And yet upon my breastF
A myriad heads have lain 'G
-
That he might Set at restF
A boy's turbulent daysH
Mohini ChatterjeeI
Spoke these or words like theseJ
I add in commentaryI
'Old lovers yet may haveK
All that time deniedL
Grave is heaped on graveD
That they be satisfiedL
Over the blackened earthM
The old troops paradeN
Birth is heaped on BirthM
That such cannonadeN
May thunder time awayA
Birth hour and death hour meetN
Or as great sages sayA
Men dance on deathless feet '-

William Butler Yeats
