The Holy Midnight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG

Ah holy midnight of the soulA
When stars alone are highB
When winds are resting at their goalA
And sea waves only sighB
-
Ambition faints from out the willC
Asleep sad longing liesD
All hope of good all fear of illC
All need of action diesD
-
Because God is and claims the lifeE
He kindled in thy brainF
And thou in him rapt far from strifeE
Diest and liv'st againG
