Time And Death And Love. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBB DEDEE FGFGG HAHCA| Last night I watched for Death | A |
| So sick of life was I | B |
| When in the street beneath | C |
| I heard his watchman cry | B |
| The hour while passing by | B |
| - | |
| I called And in the night | D |
| I heard him stop below | E |
| His owlish lanthorn's light | D |
| Blurring the windy snow | E |
| How long the time and slow | E |
| - | |
| I said Why dost thou cower | F |
| There at my door and knock | G |
| Come in It is the hour | F |
| Cease fumbling at the lock | G |
| Naught's well 'Tis no o'clock | G |
| - | |
| Black through the door with him | H |
| Swept in the Winter's breath | A |
| His cloak was great and grim | H |
| But he who smiled beneath | C |
| Had the face of Love not Death | A |
