Rhyme Scheme: AABC DEFF GGHH IIJJ

Most Holy Night that still dost keepA
The keys of all the doors of sleepA
To me when my tired eyelids closeB
Give thou reposeC
-
And let the far lament of themD
That chaunt the dead day s requiemE
Make in my ears who wakeful lieF
Soft lullabyF
-
Let them that guard the horn ed MoonG
By my bedside their memories croonG
So shall I have new dreams and blestH
In my brief restH
-
Fold thy great wings about my faceI
Hide day dawn from my resting placeI
And cheat me with thy false delightJ
Most Holy NightJ
