The Splendor Of The Days. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCC DDEEFGF HHIICCC| Sweet and shrill the crickets hiding in the grasses brown and lean | A |
| Pipe their gladness sweeter shriller one would think the world was green | A |
| O the haze is on the hilltops and the haze is on the lake | B |
| See it fleeing through the valley with the bold wind in its wake | B |
| Mark the warm October haze | C |
| Mark the splendor of the days | C |
| And the mingling of the crimson with the sombre brown and grays | C |
| - | |
| See the bare hills turn their furrows to the shine and to the glow | D |
| If you listen you can hear it hear a murmur soft and low | D |
| We are naked so the fields say stripped of all our golden dress | E |
| Heed it not October answers for I love ye none the less | E |
| Share my beauty and my cheer | F |
| While we rest together here | G |
| In these sun filled days of languor in these late days of the year | F |
| - | |
| All the splendor of the summer all the springtime's light and grace | H |
| All the riches of the harvest crown her head and light her face | H |
| And the wind goes sighing sighing as if loath to let her pass | I |
| While the crickets sing exultant in the lean and withered grass | I |
| O the warm October haze | C |
| O the splendor of the days | C |
| O the mingling of the crimson with the sombre brown and grays | C |
