The End Of The Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE DFDF GHIH| The night darkens fast the shadows darken | A |
| Clouds the rain gather about mine house | B |
| Only the wood dove moans hearken O hearken | A |
| The moan of the wood dove in the rain wet boughs | C |
| - | |
| Loneliness the night The night is lonely | D |
| Star covered the night takes to a tender breast | E |
| Wrapping them in her veil these dark hours only | D |
| The weary the bereaved the dispossessed | E |
| - | |
| When will it lighten Once the night was kindly | D |
| Nor all her hours went by leaden long | F |
| Now in mine house the hours go groping blindly | D |
| After the shiver of dawn the first bird's song | F |
| - | |
| Sleep now The night with wings of splendour swept | G |
| Hides heavy eyes from light that they may sleep | H |
| Soft secure under her gaze so tender | I |
| Lest they should wake to weep should wake to weep | H |
