An Hour's Respite Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEFEDGHHFGGGAn hour's respite once more the heart may dream | A |
the thunderwheels of passion thro' the eve | B |
distantly musical vaporously agleam | A |
about my old pain leave | B |
nought but a soft enchantment vesper fable | C |
Sweet hour of dream from the tense height of life | D |
given back to this dear grass and perfumed shade | E |
across the golden darkness | F |
I feel the simple flowerets where we stray'd | E |
in the clear eves unmix'd with starry strife | D |
Ah wilt thou not even now arise | G |
low laughing child haunting my old spring ways | H |
and blossom freshly on my freshen'd gaze | H |
sororal in this hour of tenderness | F |
an hour of happy hands and clinging eyes | G |
on silent heartstrings | G |
sweet memory fades in sweet forgetfulness | G |
