Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEEDFGHF IJJI KLLK MNNM OPPO| Risest thou thus dim dawn again | A |
| And howlest issuing out of night | B |
| With blasts that blow the poplar white | B |
| And lash with storm the streaming pane | C |
| Day when my crown'd estate begun | D |
| To pine in that reverse of doom | E |
| Which sicken'd every living bloom | E |
| And blurr'd the splendour of the sun | D |
| Who usherest in the dolorous hour | F |
| With thy quick tears that make the rose | G |
| Pull sideways and the daisy close | H |
| Her crimson fringes to the shower | F |
| - | |
| Who might'st have heaved a windless flame | I |
| Up the deep East or whispering play'd | J |
| A chequer work of beam and shade | J |
| Along the hills yet look'd the same | I |
| - | |
| As wan as chill as wild as now | K |
| Day mark'd as with some hideous crime | L |
| When the dark hand struck down thro' time | L |
| And cancell'd nature's best but thou | K |
| - | |
| Lift as thou may'st thy burthen'd brows | M |
| Thro' clouds that drench the morning star | N |
| And whirl the ungarner'd sheaf afar | N |
| And sow the sky with flying boughs | M |
| - | |
| And up thy vault with roaring sound | O |
| Climb thy thick noon disastrous day | P |
| Touch thy dull goal of joyless gray | P |
| And hide thy shame beneath the ground | O |
Alfred Lord Tennyson
