At Midnight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAA AAAA BABA CACA AAAA| At midnight in the trysting wood | A |
| I wandered by the waterside | A |
| When soft as mist before me stood | A |
| My sweetheart who had died | A |
| - | |
| But so unchanged was she meseemed | A |
| That I had only dreamed her dead | A |
| Glad in her eyes the love light gleamed | A |
| Her lips were warm and red | A |
| - | |
| What though the stars shone shadowy through | B |
| Her form as by my side she went | A |
| And by her feet no dropp of dew | B |
| Was stirred no blade was bent | A |
| - | |
| What though through her white loveliness | C |
| The wildflower dimmed the moonlight paled | A |
| Real to my touch she was no less | C |
| Than when the earth prevailed | A |
| - | |
| She took my hand My heart beat wild | A |
| She kissed my mouth I bowed my head | A |
| Then gazing in my eyes she smiled | A |
| 'When did'st thou die ' she said | A |
