In The Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFG HIJF KLM| The garden rang with music | A |
| Of inexpressible despair | B |
| A dish of oysters spread on ice | C |
| Smelled like the ocean fresh and sharp | D |
| - | |
| He told me 'I'm a faithful friend ' | - |
| And lightly touched my dress | E |
| How different from embraces | F |
| The touch of those two hands | G |
| - | |
| That's how one strokes a cat or bird | H |
| Or looks at slender lady riders | I |
| Just laughter in his quiet eyes | J |
| Beneath his light gold lashes | F |
| - | |
| And the despondent voices of the violins | K |
| Sing out beyond the hanging smoke | L |
| 'Give blessings to heaven above | M |
| At last you're alone with your beloved ' | - |
