Sadness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFAGAGHIHJ EKEKLo a pallid fleecy vapour | A |
Far along the East is spread | B |
Every star has quench'd its taper | A |
Lately glimmering over head | B |
On the leaves that bend so lowly | C |
Drops of crystal water gleam | D |
Yawning wide the peasant slowly | C |
Drives afield his sluggish team | D |
Dreary looks the forest lacking | E |
Song of birds that slumber mute | F |
No rough swain is yet attacking | E |
With his bill the beech's root | F |
Night's terrific ghostly hour | A |
Backward through time's circle flies | G |
No shrill clock from moss grown tower | A |
Bids the dead men wake and rise | G |
Wearied out with midnight riot | H |
Mystic Nature slumbers now | I |
Mouldering bodies rest in quiet | H |
'Neath their tomb lids damp and low | J |
Sad and chill the wind is sighing | E |
Through the reeds that skirt the pool | K |
All around looks dead or dying | E |
Wrapt in sorrow clad in dool | K |
