The Fable Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIJK| Beyond the steady rock the steady sea | A |
| In movement more immovable than station | B |
| Gathers and washes and is gone It comes | C |
| A slow obscure metonymy of motion | B |
| Crumbling the inner barriers of the brain | D |
| But the crossed rock braces the hills and makes | E |
| A steady quiet of the steady music | F |
| Massive with peace | G |
| And listen now | H |
| The foam receding down the sand silvers | I |
| Between the grains thin pure as virgin words | J |
| Lending a sheen to Nothing whispering | K |
