In Beechwood Cemetery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEEEFHere the dead sleep the quiet dead No sound | A |
Disturbs them ever and no storm dismays | B |
Winter mid snow caresses the tired ground | A |
And the wind roars about the woodland ways | B |
Springtime and summer and red autumn pass | C |
With leaf and bloom and pipe of wind and bird | D |
And the old earth puts forth her tender grass | C |
By them unfelt unheeded and unheard | D |
Our centuries to them are but as strokes | E |
In the dim gamut of some far off chime | F |
Unaltering rest their perfect being cloaks | E |
A thing too vast to hear or feel or see | E |
Children of Silence and Eternity | E |
They know no season but the end of time | F |
