Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBCB DEDE FEFEWhere from the eye of day | A |
The dark and silent river | B |
Pursues through tangled woods a way | A |
O'er which the tall trees quiver | B |
- | |
The silver mist that breaks | C |
From out that woodland cover | B |
Betrays the hidden path it takes | C |
And hangs the current over | B |
- | |
So oft the thoughts that burst | D |
From hidden springs of feeling | E |
Like silent streams unseen at first | D |
From our cold hearts are stealing | E |
- | |
But soon the clouds that veil | F |
The eye of Love when glowing | E |
Betray the long unwhispered tale | F |
Of thoughts in darkness flowing | E |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
