The Mountain Tomb Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ABAB CBCB| Pour wine and dance if manhood still have pride | A |
| Bring roses if the rose be yet in bloom | B |
| The cataract smokes upon the mountain side | A |
| Our Father Rosicross is in his tomb | B |
| - | |
| Pull down the blinds bring fiddle and clarionet | A |
| That there be no foot silent in the room | B |
| Nor mouth from kissing nor from wine unwet | A |
| Our Father Rosicross is in his tomb | B |
| - | |
| In vain in pain the cataract still cries | C |
| The everlasting taper lights the gloom | B |
| All wisdom shut into his onyx eyes | C |
| Our Father Rosicross sleeps in his tomb | B |
