Midnight In Camp Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDBBD BEBEBFFB CGCGHFFH FIFIJFFJ| Night in the unslumbering forest From the free | A |
| Vast pinelands by the foot of man untrod | B |
| Blows the wild wind roaming rejoicingly | C |
| This wilderness of God | B |
| And the tall firs that all day long have flung | D |
| Balsamic odors where the sunshine burned | B |
| Chant to its harping primal epics learned | B |
| When this old world was young | D |
| - | |
| Beyond the lake white girdling peaks uplift | B |
| Untroubled brows to virgin skies afar | E |
| And o'er the uncertain water glimmers drift | B |
| Of fitful cloud and star | E |
| Sure never day such mystic beauty held | B |
| As sylvan midnight here in this surcease | F |
| Of toil when the kind darkness gives us peace | F |
| Garnered from years of eld | B |
| - | |
| Lo Hearken to the mountain waterfall | C |
| Laughing adown its pathway to the glen | G |
| And nearer in the cedars the low call | C |
| Of brook to brook again | G |
| Voices that garish daytime may not know | H |
| Wander at will along the bosky steeps | F |
| And silent silver footed moonlight creeps | F |
| Through the dim glades below | H |
| - | |
| Oh it is well to waken with the woods | F |
| And feel as those who wait with God alone | I |
| The forest's heart in these rare solitudes | F |
| Beating against our own | I |
| Close shut behind us are the gates of care | J |
| Divinity enfolds us prone to bless | F |
| And our souls kneel Night in the wilderness | F |
| Is one great prayer | J |
