Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC BEFG BHIH JKLM

A
-
The Sun kept setting setting stillB
No Hue of AfternoonC
Upon the Village I perceivedD
From House to House 'twas NoonC
-
The Dusk kept dropping dropping stillB
No Dew upon the GrassE
But only on my Forehead stoppedF
And wandered in my FaceG
-
My Feet kept drowsing drowsing stillB
My fingers were awakeH
Yet why so little sound MyselfI
Unto my Seeming makeH
-
How well I knew the Light beforeJ
I could see it nowK
'Tis Dying I am doing butL
I'm not afraid to knowM
