Prelude To "preludes" Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG

Though black the night I know upon the skyA
A little paler now if clouds were noneB
The stars would be Husht now the thickets lieA
And now the birds are moving one by oneB
A note and now from bush to bush it goesC
A prelude now victorious light alongD
The west will come till every bramble glowsC
With wash of sunlit dew shaken in songD
Shaken in song O heart be ready nowE
Cold in your night be ready now to singF
Dawn as it wakes the sleeping bird on boughE
Shall summon you to instant reckoningF
She is your dawn O heart sing till the nightG
Of death shall come the gospel of her lightG
