To The Moon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEFGHICJKLMM| O lovely moon how well do I recall | A |
| The time 'tis just a year when up this hill | B |
| I came in my distress to gaze at thee | C |
| And thou suspended wast o'er yonder grove | D |
| As now thou art which thou with light dost fill | B |
| But stained with mist and tremulous appeared | E |
| Thy countenance to me because my eyes | F |
| Were filled with tears that could not be suppressed | G |
| For oh my life was wretched wearisome | H |
| And is so still unchanged belov d moon | I |
| And yet this recollection pleases me | C |
| This computation of my sorrow's age | J |
| How pleasant is it in the days of youth | K |
| When hope a long career before it hath | L |
| And memories are few upon the past | M |
| To dwell though sad and though the sadness last | M |
