The Indian To His Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACC DEDEE FBFBB GHIHH

The island dreams under the dawnA
And great boughs drop tranquillityB
The peahens dance on a smooth lawnA
A parrot sways upon a treeC
Raging at his own image in the enamelled seaC
-
Here we will moor our lonely shipD
And wander ever with woven handsE
Murmuring softly lip to lipD
Along the grass along the sandsE
Murmuring how far away are the unquiet landsE
-
How we alone of mortals areF
Hid under quiet boughs apartB
While our love grows an Indian starF
A meteor of the burning heartB
One with the tide that gleams the wings that gleam and dartB
-
The heavy boughs the burnished doveG
That moans and sighs a hundred daysH
How when we die our shades will roveI
When eve has hushed the feathered waysH
With vapoury footsole by the water's drowsy blazeH

William Butler Yeats
