Serenade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFFGGHHIIJ JKKEE| So sweet the hour so calm the time | A |
| I feel it more than half a crime | A |
| When Nature sleeps and stars are mute | B |
| To mar the silence ev'n with lute | B |
| At rest on ocean's brilliant dyes | C |
| An image of Elysium lies | C |
| Seven Pleiades entranced in Heaven | D |
| Form in the deep another seven | D |
| Endymion nodding from above | E |
| Sees in the sea a second love | E |
| Within the valleys dim and brown | F |
| And on the spectral mountain's crown | F |
| The wearied light is dying down | F |
| And earth and stars and sea and sky | G |
| Are redolent of sleep as I | G |
| Am redolent of thee and thine | H |
| Enthralling love my Adeline | H |
| But list O list so soft and low | I |
| Thy lover's voice tonight shall flow | I |
| That scarce awake thy soul shall deem | J |
| My words the music of a dream | J |
| Thus while no single sound too rude | K |
| Upon thy slumber shall intrude | K |
| Our thoughts our souls O God above | E |
| In every deed shall mingle love | E |
