The Countess Cathleen In Paradise Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD CECE FGFG

All the heavy days are overA
Leave the body's coloured prideB
Underneath the grass and cloverA
With the feet laid side by sideB
-
Bathed in flaming founts of dutyC
She'll not ask a haughty dressD
Carry all that mournful beautyC
To the scented oaken pressD
-
Did the kiss of Mother MaryC
Put that music in her faceE
Yet she goes with footstep waryC
Full of earth's old timid graceE
-
'Mong the feet of angels sevenF
What a dancer glimmeringG
All the heavens bow down to HeavenF
Flame to flame and wing to wingG

William Butler Yeats
