Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAF GDGGD| Linger oh Sun for a little nor close yet this day of a million | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Is there not glory enough in the rose curtained halls of the West | B |
| Hast thou no joy in the passion hued folds of thy kingly pavilion | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Why shouldst thou only pass through it Oh rest thee a little while rest | B |
| - | |
| Why should the Night come and take it the wan Night that cannot enjoy it | C |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Bringing pale argent for golden and changing vermilion to grey | D |
| Why should the Night come and shadow it entering but to destroy it | C |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Rest 'mid thy ruby trailed splendours Oh stay thee a little while stay | D |
| - | |
| Rest thee at least a brief hour in it 'Tis a right royal pavilion | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Lo there are thrones for high dalliance all gloriously canopied o'er | E |
| Lo there are hangings of purple and hangings of blue and vermilion | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp And there are fleeces of gold for thy feet on the diapered floor | F |
| - | |
| Linger a little while linger To morrow my heart may not sing to thee | G |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp This shall be Yesterday numbered with memories folded away | D |
| Now should my flesh fettered soul be set free I would soar to thee | G |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp cling to thee | G |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp And be thy rere ward Aurora pursuing the skirts of To day | D |
