Night In May Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABA CCDC EEFE GGHG| The snowy clouds soft sleeping lambkins lie | A |
| Along the dark blue meadows of the sky | A |
| And the bright stars like golden daffodils | B |
| Are blooming thickly by | A |
| - | |
| And Luna gentle shepherdess the while | C |
| Keeps near her flock and guards it with her smile | C |
| I almost fancy I can hear her song | D |
| Down to this shadowed stile | C |
| - | |
| Lo Zephyrus fond lover comes to woo | E |
| With airy step he hastes the pastures through | E |
| And steals a kiss from Luna as she nods | F |
| Drowsy with fragrant dew | E |
| - | |
| She starts the little lambs aroused from sleep | G |
| Fly hence but Luna near her swain doth keep | G |
| Oh it was ever thus since lover came | H |
| 'Twixt shepherdess and sheep | G |
