A Dark Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDEDThe gloom that breathes upon me with these airs | A |
Is like the drops which strike the traveller's brow | B |
Who knows not darkling if they bring him now | B |
Fresh storm or be old rain the covert bears | A |
Ah bodes this hour some harvest of new tares | A |
Or hath but memory of the day whose plough | B |
Sowed hunger once the night at length when thou | B |
O prayer found vain didst fall from out my prayers | A |
- | |
How prickly were the growths which yet how smooth | C |
Along the hedgerows of this journey shed | D |
Lie by Time's grace till night and sleep may soothe | C |
Even as the thistledown from pathsides dead | D |
Gleaned by a girl in autumns of her youth | E |
Which one new year makes soft her marriage bed | D |
