Sun And Moon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE| First came the red eyed sun as I did wake | A |
| He smote me on the temples and I rose | B |
| Casting the night aside and all its woes | B |
| And I would spurn my idleness and take | A |
| My own wild journey even like him and shake | A |
| The pillars of all doubt with lusty blows | B |
| Even like himself when his rich glory goes | B |
| Right through the stalwart fogs that part and break | A |
| But ere my soul was ready for the fight | C |
| His solemn setting mocked me in the west | D |
| And as I trembled in the lifting night | C |
| The white moon met me and my heart confess'd | D |
| A mellow wisdom in her silent youth | E |
| Which fed my hope with fear and made my strength a truth | E |
