Keats Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCCDC

The young Endymion sleeps Endymion's sleepA
The shepherd boy whose tale was left half toldB
The solemn grove uplifts its shield of goldB
To the red rising moon and loud and deepA
The nightingale is singing from the steepA
It is midsummer but the air is coldB
Can it be death Alas beside the foldB
A shepherd's pipe lies shattered near his sheepA
Lo in the moonlight gleams a marble whiteC
On which I read Here lieth one whose nameD
Was writ in water And was this the meedC
Of his sweet singing Rather let me writeC
The smoking flax before it burst to flameD
Was quenched by death and broken the bruised reedC

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
