Presences Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDBEFGHECHG| This night has been so strange that it seemed | A |
| As if the hair stood up on my head | B |
| From going down of the sun I have dreamed | A |
| That women laughing or timid or wild | C |
| In rustle of lace or silken stuff | D |
| Climbed up my creaking stair They had read | B |
| All I had rhymed of that monstrous thing | E |
| Returned and yet unrequited love | F |
| They stood in the door and stood between | G |
| My great wood lectern and the fire | H |
| Till I could hear their hearts beating | E |
| One is a harlot and one a child | C |
| That never looked upon man with desire | H |
| And one it may be a queen | G |
