Twilight And I Went Hand In Hand Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACC DEEDFF GDDGHH IJKILL MNNMOO| Twilight and I went hand in hand | A |
| As lovers walk in shining Mays | B |
| O'er musky memory haunted ways | B |
| Across a lonely harvest land | A |
| Where west winds chanted in the wheat | C |
| An old old vesper wondrous sweet | C |
| - | |
| Oh Twilight was a comrade rare | D |
| For gypsy heath or templed grove | E |
| In her gray vesture shadow wove | E |
| I saw the darkness of her hair | D |
| Faint mirrored in a field pool dim | F |
| As we stood tip toe on its rim | F |
| - | |
| We went as lightly as on wings | G |
| Through many a scented chamber fair | D |
| Among the pines and balsams where | D |
| I could have dreamed of darling things | G |
| And ever as we went I knew | H |
| The peeping fairy folk went too | H |
| - | |
| I could have lingered now and then | I |
| By gates of moonrise that might lead | J |
| To some forgotten spiceried mead | K |
| Or in some mossy cloistered glen | I |
| Where silence very still and deep | L |
| Seemed fallen in enchanted sleep | L |
| - | |
| But Twilight ever led me on | M |
| As lovers walk until we came | N |
| To hills where sunset's shaken flame | N |
| Had paled to ashes dead and wan | M |
| And there with footsteps stolen light | O |
| She left me to the lure of night | O |
