By A Grave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| Oft have I stood within the carven door | A |
| Of some cathedral at the close of the day | B |
| And seen its softened splendors fade away | B |
| From lucent pane and tessellated floor | A |
| As if a parting guest who comes no more | A |
| Till over all silence and blackness lay | B |
| Then rose sweet murmurings of them that pray | B |
| And shone the altar lamps unseen before | A |
| So Dear as here I stand with thee alone | C |
| The voices of the world sound faint and far | D |
| The glare and glory of the moon grow dim | E |
| And in the stillness what I had not known | C |
| I know a light pure shining as a star | D |
| A song uprising like a holy hymn | E |
