What Of The Night? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DEDEDE| The doom is imminent of unholy hate | A |
| Hail to the light that glimmers where the leaves | B |
| Are shaken by winds of dawning and the sheaves | B |
| Of hemlock swirl and scatter in the spate | A |
| Love that has learned in faith to sorrow and wait | A |
| Sings loud his glorious charm and subtly weaves | B |
| The spell subduing madness that receives | B |
| The madman at his own mad estimate | C |
| - | |
| Ah but the ponderous horror Nay not yet | D |
| The cloud of sorrow leeward growls and rolls | E |
| The eyes that meet the morn are heavy and wet | D |
| The loss the military mind enscrolls | E |
| Spilt blood and battered bones we may forget | D |
| But not the wastage of beloved souls | E |
