Flower-de-luce: To-morrow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDCCD'Tis late at night and in the realm of sleep | A |
My little lambs are folded like the flocks | B |
From room to room I hear the wakeful clocks | B |
Challenge the passing hour like guards that keep | A |
Their solitary watch on tower and steep | A |
Far off I hear the crowing of the cocks | B |
And through the opening door that time unlocks | B |
Feel the fresh breathing of To morrow creep | A |
To morrow the mysterious unknown guest | C |
Who cries to me 'Remember Barmecide | C |
And tremble to be happy with the rest ' | D |
And I make answer 'I am satisfied | C |
I dare not ask I know not what is best | C |
God hath already said what shall betide ' | D |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
