Day-break. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCDCDDEFGF| The red east glows the dewy cheek of Day | A |
| Has not yet met the sun's o'erpowering smile | B |
| The dew drops in their beauty still are gay | A |
| Save those the shepherd's early steps defile | B |
| Pleas'd will I linger o'er the scene awhile | B |
| The black clouds melt away the larks awaken | C |
| Sing rising bird and I will join with thee | D |
| With day break's beauties I have much been taken | C |
| As thy first anthem breath'd its melody | D |
| I've stood and paus'd the varied cloud to see | D |
| And warm'd in ecstacy and look'd and warm'd | E |
| When day's first rays the far hill top adorning | F |
| Fring'd the blue clouds with gold O doubly charm'd | G |
| I hung in raptures then on early Morning | F |
