Summer Midnight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCCCDDEECCFFGGCC| Athwart the star lit midnight sky | A |
| Luminous fleecy clouds drift by | A |
| As the mysterious pallid moon | B |
| Sinks in the waveless still lagoon | B |
| Now that the queen of night is dead | C |
| The starry commonwealth o'erhead | C |
| Softer and fairer than gaudy day | C |
| Sheds lustrous light from the Milky Way | C |
| While the Dog star gleams and the Sisters Seven | D |
| Float tremulously in the misty heaven | D |
| Faintly afar the horse bells ring | E |
| Myriads of wakened crickets sing | E |
| And the spirit voices of the night | C |
| Sing snatches of fairy music bright | C |
| Old world melodies lang syne sung | F |
| Recalling days when the heart was young | F |
| Whose wonderful cadences fall and rise | G |
| As the wind in the casuarina sighs | G |
| And the world seems 'gulfed this summer night | C |
| In a flood of delicious dreamy light | C |
