The Dying Year Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDD DBDB

The year has been a tedious oneA
A weary round of toil and sorrowB
And since it now at last is goneC
We say farewell and hail the morrowB
-
Yet o'er the wreck which time has wroughtD
A sweet consoling ray is shimmeredE
The one but compensating thoughtD
That literary life has glimmeredD
-
Struggling with hunger and with coldD
The world contemptuously beheld 'erB
The little thing was one year oldD
But who'd have cared had she been elderB
