A Song In The Night (ii) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AA BB CC DD EE FFI would I were an angel strong | A |
An angel of the sun hasting along | A |
- | |
I would I were just come awake | B |
A child outbursting from night's dusky brake | B |
- | |
Or lark whose inward upward fate | C |
Mocks every wall that masks the heavenly gate | C |
- | |
Or hopeful cock whose clarion clear | D |
Shrills ten times ere a film of dawn appear | D |
- | |
Or but a glowworm even then | E |
My light would come straight from the Light of Men | E |
- | |
I am a dead seed dark and slow | F |
Father of larks and children make me grow | F |
