Walking At Eve Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECEF| Walking at eve I met a little child | A |
| Running beside a tragic featured dame | B |
| Who checked his blitheness with a quick For shame | B |
| And seemed by sharp caprice froward and mild | A |
| Scarce heeding her the sweet one ran beguiled | A |
| By the lit street and his eyes too aflame | B |
| Only at whiles into his eyes there came | B |
| Bewilderment and grief with terror wild | A |
| - | |
| So Beauty dost thou run with tragic life | C |
| So with the curious world's caress enchanted | D |
| Even of ill things thine ecstasy dost make | E |
| Yet at the touch of fear and vital strife | C |
| The splendours thy young innocency forsake | E |
| And with thy foster mother's woe thou art haunted | F |
