Dawn On The Night-journey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEADFATILL dawn the wind drove round me It is past | A |
And still and leaves the air to lisp of bird | B |
And to the quiet that is almost heard | B |
Of the new risen day as yet bound fast | A |
In the first warmth of sunrise When the last | A |
Of the sun's hours to day shall be fulfilled | C |
There shall another breath of time be stilled | C |
For me which now is to my senses cast | A |
As much beyond me as eternity | D |
Unknown kept secret On the newborn air | E |
The moth quivers in silence It is vast | A |
Yea even beyond the hills upon the sea | D |
The day whose end shall give this hour as sheer | F |
As chaos to the irrevocable Past | A |
Dante Gabriel Rossetti
