Evening Solace Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEGHIHI JKJKELEL MNMOCPCFTHE human heart has hidden treasures | A |
In secret kept in silence sealed | B |
The thoughts the hopes the dreams the pleasures | A |
Whose charms were broken if revealed | B |
And days may pass in gay confusion | C |
And nights in rosy riot fly | D |
While lost in Fame's or Wealth's illusion | C |
The memory of the Past may die | D |
- | |
But there are hours of lonely musing | E |
Such as in evening silence come | F |
When soft as birds their pinions closing | E |
The heart's best feelings gather home | G |
Then in our souls there seems to languish | H |
A tender grief that is not woe | I |
And thoughts that once wrung groans of anguish | H |
Now cause but some mild tears to flow | I |
- | |
And feelings once as strong as passions | J |
Float softly back a faded dream | K |
Our own sharp griefs and wild sensations | J |
The tale of others' sufferings seem | K |
Oh when the heart is freshly bleeding | E |
How longs it for that time to be | L |
When through the mist of years receding | E |
Its woes but live in reverie | L |
- | |
And it can dwell on moonlight glimmer | M |
On evening shade and loneliness | N |
And while the sky grows dim and dimmer | M |
Feel no untold and strange distress | O |
Only a deeper impulse given | C |
By lonely hour and darkened room | P |
To solemn thoughts that soar to heaven | C |
Seeking a life and world to come | F |
