Mongan Laments The Change That Has Come Upon Him And His Beloved Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGFGDo you not hear me calling white deer with no horns | A |
I have been changed to a hound with one red ear | B |
I have been in the Path of Stones and the Wood of Thorns | A |
For somebody hid hatred and hope and desire and fear | C |
Under my feet that they follow you night and day | D |
A man with a hazel wand came without sound | E |
He changed me suddenly I was looking another way | D |
And now my calling is but the calling of a hound | E |
And Time and Birth and Change are hurrying by | F |
I would that the boar without bristles had come from the West | G |
And had rooted the sun and moon and stars out of the sky | F |
And lay in the darkness grunting and turning to his rest | G |
William Butler Yeats
