Rhyme Scheme: ABABACAC DEDE AFAF DGDG AHAH AIAJ AFAF AKAK AHAH LMLNGloomily the clouds are sailing | A |
O'er the dimly moonlit sky | B |
Dolefully the wind is wailing | A |
Not another sound is nigh | B |
Only I can hear it sweeping | A |
Heathclad hill and woodland dale | C |
And at times the nights's sad weeping | A |
Sounds above its dying wail | C |
- | |
Now the struggling moonbeams glimmer | D |
Now the shadows deeper fall | E |
Till the dim light waxing dimmer | D |
Scarce reveals yon stately hall | E |
- | |
All beneath its roof are sleeping | A |
Such a silence reigns around | F |
I can hear the cold rain steeping | A |
Dripping roof and plashy ground | F |
- | |
No not all are wrapped in slumber | D |
At yon chamber window stands | G |
One whose years can scarce outnumber | D |
The tears that dew his clasped hands | G |
- | |
From the open casement bending | A |
He surveys the murky skies | H |
Dreary sighs his bosom rending | A |
Hot tears gushing from his eyes | H |
- | |
Now that Autumn's charms are dying | A |
Summer's glories long since gone | I |
Faded leaves on damp earth lying | A |
Hoary winter striding on | J |
- | |
'Tis no marvel skies are lowering | A |
Winds are moaning thus around | F |
And cold rain with ceaseless pouring | A |
Swells the streams and swamps the ground | F |
- | |
But such wild such bitter grieving | A |
Fits not slender boys like thee | K |
Such deep sighs should not be heaving | A |
Breasts so young as thine must be | K |
- | |
Life with thee is only springing | A |
Summer in thy pathway lies | H |
Every day is nearer bringing | A |
June's bright flowers and glowing skies | H |
- | |
Ah he sees no brighter morrow | L |
He is not too young to prove | M |
All the pain and all the sorrow | L |
That attend the steps of love | N |
