The Close Of Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFDF

The melancholy of the woods and plainsA
When summer nears its close the drowsy dimB
Unfathomed sadness of the mists that swimB
About the valleys after night long rainsA
The humming garden with it tawny chainsA
Of gourds and blossoms ripened to the brimB
And then at eve the low moon's quiet rimB
And the slow sunset whose one cloud remainsA
Fill me with peace that is akin to tearsC
Unutterable peace that moves as in a dreamD
Mid fancies sweeter than it knows or tellsE
That sees and hears with other eyes and earsF
And walks with Memory beside a streamD
That flows through fields of fadeless asphodelsF
