The Tired Worker Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGFGHH| O whisper O my soul The afternoon | A |
| Is waning into evening whisper soft | B |
| Peace O my rebel heart for soon the moon | A |
| From out its misty veil will swing aloft | C |
| Be patient weary body soon the night | D |
| Will wrap thee gently in her sable sheet | E |
| And with a leaden sigh thou wilt invite | D |
| To rest thy tired hands and aching feet | E |
| The wretched day was theirs the night is mine | F |
| Come tender sleep and fold me to thy breast | G |
| But what steals out the gray clouds like red wine | F |
| O dawn O dreaded dawn O let me rest | G |
| Weary my veins my brain my life Have pity | H |
| No Once again the harsh the ugly city | H |
