In Memoriam A. H. H.: 78. Again At Christmas Did We Weave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEED FGGF HIIH JKKJ| Again at Christmas did we weave | A |
| The holly round the Christmas hearth | B |
| The silent snow possess'd the earth | C |
| And calmly fell our Christmas eve | A |
| - | |
| The yule log sparkled keen with frost | D |
| No wing of wind the region swept | E |
| But over all things brooding slept | E |
| The quiet sense of something lost | D |
| - | |
| As in the winters left behind | F |
| Again our ancient games had place | G |
| The mimic picture's breathing grace | G |
| And dance and song and hoodman blind | F |
| - | |
| Who show'd a token of distress | H |
| No single tear no mark of pain | I |
| O sorrow then can sorrow wane | I |
| O grief can grief be changed to less | H |
| - | |
| O last regret regret can die | J |
| No mixt with all this mystic frame | K |
| Her deep relations are the same | K |
| But with long use her tears are dry | J |
