An interesting exercise formally: four quatrains using Alexandrines iambic hexameter in an a-b-b-a rhyme pattern but with a half-line in the second place of each quatrain, which gives an impression almost of stepping off solid ground and floating through the air for a moment. The subject of the poem is the indestructibility of castles built in the air, or in this case, more exactly, in cumulous clouds. - Robert Eldridge. Sidney-Fryer, Donald. Emperor of Dreams:
