The After-glow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEDCE| It is a solemn evening golden clear | A |
| The Alpine summits flame with rose lit snow | B |
| And headlands purpling on wide seas below | B |
| And clouds and woods and arid rocks appear | A |
| Dissolving in the sun's own atmosphere | A |
| And vast circumference of light whose slow | B |
| Transfiguration glow and after glow | B |
| Turns twilight earth to a more luminous sphere | A |
| - | |
| Oh heart I ask seeing that the orb of day | C |
| Has sunk below yet left to sky and sea | D |
| His glory's spiritual after shine | E |
| I ask if Love whose sun hath set for thee | D |
| May not touch grief with his memorial ray | C |
| And lend to loss itself a joy divine | E |
