Lines.-i Cannot Sleep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A B C B D E D E F B F B| I cannot sleep my nights glide on | A |
| - | |
| In one unbroken thought of thee | B |
| - | |
| And when the gloomy shades are gone | C |
| - | |
| I start the dawning light to see | B |
| - | |
| And as I watch the rising morn | D |
| - | |
| Gain slowly o'er the yielding sky | E |
| - | |
| And mark another day new born | D |
| - | |
| That glows so brightly yet must die | E |
| - | |
| I think how all the hopes we cherish | F |
| - | |
| As transient though as bright will be | B |
| - | |
| And frailest of the hopes that perish | F |
| - | |
| Were mine that told of love and thee | B |
