Nightfall Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCDThe times are nightfall look their light grows less | A |
The times are winter watch a world undone | B |
They waste they wither worse they as they run | B |
Or bring more or more blazon man's distress | A |
And I not help Nor word now of success | A |
All is from wreck here there to rescue one | B |
Work which to see scarce so much as begun | B |
Makes welcome death does dear forgetfulness | A |
- | |
Or what is else There is your world within | C |
There rid the dragons root out there the sin | C |
Your will is law in that small commonweal | D |
