Eva Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGFHGIIH| God bless the darling Eva was my prayer | A |
| A pure unconscious depth of earnestness | B |
| Was in her eyes so indescribable | C |
| You might as well the color of the air | A |
| Seek to daguerreotype or to impress | D |
| A stain upon the river whose first swell | E |
| Would swirl it to the deep A calm sweet soul | F |
| Where Love's celestial saints and ministers | G |
| Did hold the earthly under such control | F |
| Virtue sprung up like daisies from the sod | H |
| Oh for one hour's sweet excellence like hers | G |
| One hour of sinlessness that never more | I |
| Can visit me this side the Silent Shore | I |
| To stand like her serene unblushing before God | H |
