The Happy Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCA DEDEFF| I have loved to night from love's last bordering steep | A |
| I have fallen at last with joy and forgotten the shore | B |
| I have known my love to night as never before | B |
| I have flung myself in the deep and drawn from the deep | A |
| And kissed her lightly and left my beloved to sleep | A |
| And now I sit in the night and my heart is still | C |
| Strong and secure there is nothing that's left to will | C |
| There is nothing to win but only a thing to keep | A |
| - | |
| And I look to night completed and not afraid | D |
| Into the windy dark where shines no light | E |
| And care not at all though the darkness never should fade | D |
| Nor fear that death should suddenly come to night | E |
| Knowing my last would be surely my bravest breath | F |
| I am happy to night I have laughed to night at death | F |
