Sonnet Lxvi: The Heart Of The Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDEF| From child to youth from youth to arduous man | A |
| From lethargy to fever of the heart | B |
| From faithful life to dream dowered days apart | B |
| From trust to doubt from doubt to brink of ban | A |
| Thus much of change in one swift cycle ran | A |
| Till now Alas the soul how soon must she | C |
| Accept her primal immortality | C |
| The flesh resume its dust whence it began | A |
| O Lord of work and peace O Lord of life | D |
| O Lord the awful Lord of will though late | E |
| Even yet renew this soul with duteous breath | F |
| That when the peace is garnered in from strife | D |
| The work retrieved the will regenerate | E |
| This soul may see thy face O Lord of death | F |
