The Simplon Pass Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKDLMDCNONPBrook and road | A |
Were fellow travellers in this gloomy Pass | B |
And with them did we journey several hours | C |
At a slow step The immeasurable height | D |
Of woods decaying never to be decayed | E |
The stationary blasts of waterfalls | F |
And in the narrow rent at every turn | G |
Winds thwarting winds bewildered and forlorn | H |
The torrents shooting from the clear blue sky | I |
The rocks that muttered close upon our ears | J |
Black drizzling crags that spake by the wayside | K |
As if a voice were in them the sick sight | D |
And giddy prospect of the raving stream | L |
The unfettered clouds and region of the heavens | M |
Tumult and peace the darkness and the light | D |
Were all like workings of one mind the features | C |
Of the same face blossoms upon one tree | N |
Characters of the great Apocalypse | O |
The types and symbols of Eternity | N |
Of first and last and midst and without end | P |
