World Strangeness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG CDCD| Strange the world about me lies | A |
| Never yet familiar grown | B |
| Still disturbs me with surprise | A |
| Haunts me like a face half known | B |
| - | |
| In this house with starry dome | C |
| Floored with gemlike plains and seas | D |
| Shall I never feel at home | C |
| Never wholly be at ease | D |
| - | |
| On from room to room I stray | E |
| Yet my Host can ne'er espy | F |
| And I know not to this day | E |
| Whether guest or captive I | G |
| - | |
| So between the starry dome | C |
| And the floor of plains and seas | D |
| I have never felt at home | C |
| Never wholly been at ease | D |
