Picture Of Twilight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHIIJJ KLMNNOO| Oh Twilight Spirit that dost render birth | A |
| To dim enchantments melting heaven with earth | A |
| Leaving on craggy hills and running streams | B |
| A softness like the atmosphere of dreams | B |
| Thy hour to all is welcome Faint and sweet | C |
| Thy light falls round the peasant's homeward feet | C |
| Who slow returning from his task of toil | D |
| Sees the low sunset gild the cultured soil | D |
| And though such radiance round him brightly glows | E |
| Marks the small spark his cottage window throws | E |
| Still as his heart forestalls his weary pace | F |
| Fondly he dreams of each familiar face | F |
| Recalls the treasures of his narrow life | G |
| His rosy children and his sunburnt wife | G |
| To whom his coming is the chief event | H |
| Of simple days in cheerful labour spent | H |
| The rich man's chariot hath gone whirling past | I |
| And these poor cottagers have only cast | I |
| One careless glance on all that show of pride | J |
| Then to their tasks turn'd quietly aside | J |
| But him they wait for him they welcome home | K |
| Fix'd sentinels look forth to see him come | L |
| The fagot sent for when the fire grew dim | M |
| For him the watching of that sturdy boy | N |
| For him those smiles of tenderness and joy | N |
| For him who plods his sauntering way along | O |
| Whistling the fragment of some village song | O |
