Poet Analysis

First Line: THE FITFUL ALTERNATIONS OF THE RAIN
Last Line: DRIVES THROUGH THE GRAY AND BEAMLESS ATMOSPHERE.
Subject(s): RAIN;

THE fitful alternations of the rain,
When the chill wind, languid as with pain
Of its own heavy moisture, here and there
Drives through the gray and beamless atmosphere.
