Song (untitled #4) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACC DEEDFF GHHGII| Two wedded lovers watched the rising moon | A |
| That with her strange mysterious beauty glowing | B |
| Over misty hills and waters flowing | B |
| Crowned the long twilight loveliness of June | A |
| And thus in me and thus in me they spake | C |
| The solemn secret of fist love did wake | C |
| - | |
| Above the hills the blushing orb arose | D |
| Her shape encircled by a radiant bower | E |
| In which the nightingale with charmed power | E |
| Poured forth enchantment o'er the dark repose | D |
| And thus in me and thus in me they said | F |
| Earth's mists did with the sweet new spirit wed | F |
| - | |
| Far up the sky with ever purer beam | G |
| Upon the throne of night the moon was seated | H |
| And down the valley glens the shades retreated | H |
| And silver light was on the open stream | G |
| And thus in me and thus in me they sighed | I |
| Aspiring Love has hallowed Passion's tide | I |
