Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBDB BBBBEDED| OH soothing hour when glowing day | A |
| Low in the western wave declines | B |
| And village murmurs die away | A |
| And bright the vesper planet shines | B |
| I love to hear the gale of Even | C |
| Breathing along the new leaf'd copse | B |
| And feel the freshening dew of Heaven | D |
| Fall silently in limpid drops | B |
| - | |
| For like a friend's consoling sighs | B |
| That breeze of night to me appears | B |
| And as soft dew from Pity's eyes | B |
| Descend those pure celestial tears | B |
| Alas for those who long have borne | E |
| Like me a heart by sorrow riven | D |
| Who but the plaintive winds will mourn | E |
| What tears will fall but those of Heaven | D |
