An Invitation To Sleep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACACADADEFEF| Little eyelids cease your winking | A |
| Little orbs forget to beam | B |
| Little soul to slumber sinking | A |
| Let the fairies rule your dream | B |
| Breezes through the lattice sweeping | A |
| Sing their lullabies the while | C |
| And a star ray softly creeping | A |
| To thy bedside woos thy smile | C |
| But no song nor ray entrancing | A |
| Can allure thee from the spell | D |
| Of the tiny fairies dancing | A |
| O'er the eyes they love so well | D |
| See we come in countless number | E |
| I their queen and all my court | F |
| Haste my precious one to slumber | E |
| Which invites our fairy sport | F |
