In Beechwood Cemetery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEEEF

Here the dead sleep the quiet dead No soundA
Disturbs them ever and no storm dismaysB
Winter mid snow caresses the tired groundA
And the wind roars about the woodland waysB
Springtime and summer and red autumn passC
With leaf and bloom and pipe of wind and birdD
And the old earth puts forth her tender grassC
By them unfelt unheeded and unheardD
Our centuries to them are but as strokesE
In the dim gamut of some far off chimeF
Unaltering rest their perfect being cloaksE
A thing too vast to hear or feel or seeE
Children of Silence and EternityE
They know no season but the end of timeF
