A. M. D. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDBDCB| Methinks I see thee lying straight and low | A |
| Silent and darkling in thy earthy bed | B |
| The mighty strength in which I trusted fled | B |
| The long arms lying careless of kiss or blow | A |
| On thy tall form I see the night robe flow | A |
| Down from the pale composed face thy head | B |
| Crowned with its own dark curls though thou wast dead | B |
| They dressed thee as for sleep and left thee so | A |
| My heart with cares and questionings oppressed | C |
| Not oft since thou didst leave us turns to thee | D |
| But wait my brother till I too am dead | B |
| And thou shalt find that heart more true more free | D |
| More ready in thy love to take its rest | C |
| Than when we lay together in one bed | B |
