The Twilight Woods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEDCE| As eve to purple turns the afterglow | A |
| That lately with a rich and fervent red | B |
| Illumed the sunset skies my feet are led | B |
| By whispering spirits of the winds that blow | A |
| At this grey hour and many secrets know | A |
| To where the oaks and pines meet overhead | B |
| In plots to keep away the light I tread | B |
| Beneath their archways pensively and slow | A |
| - | |
| Here darkening twillight is a sorcery | C |
| Whereby all things are rendered weird and strange | D |
| Bushes and trees fantastic shapes assume | E |
| And shadows lurk within the forest's range | D |
| Felt but unseen for when I turn they flee | C |
| To darker depths of consecrated gloom | E |
