Twilight At The Heights Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF| The brave young city by the Balboa seas | A |
| Lies compassed about by the hosts of night | B |
| Lies humming low like a hive of bees | A |
| And the day lies dead And its spirit's flight | B |
| Is far to the west while the golden bars | C |
| That bound it are broken to a dust of stars | C |
| - | |
| Come under my oaks oh drowsy dusk | D |
| The wolf and the dog dear incense hour | E |
| When Mother Earth hath a smell of musk | D |
| And things of the spirit assert their power | E |
| When candles are set to burn in the west | F |
| Set head and foot to the day at rest | F |
