Written On A Summer Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDC| The church bells toll a melancholy round | A |
| Calling the people to some other prayers | B |
| Some other gloominess more dreadful cares | B |
| More harkening to the sermon's horrid sound | A |
| Surely the mind of man is closely bound | A |
| In some blind spell seeing that each one tears | B |
| Himself from fireside joys and Lydian airs | B |
| And converse high of those with glory crowned | A |
| Still still they toll and I should feel a damp | C |
| A chill as from a tomb did I not know | D |
| That they are dying like an outburnt lamp | C |
| That 'tis their sighing wailing ere they go | D |
| Into oblivion that fresh flowers will grow | D |
| And many glories of immortal stamp | C |
John Keats
