When You Wake Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDDDE AFAFCCAAAA AGAGCCHHHH| When you wake from troubled slumbers | A |
| With a dream bewildered brain | B |
| And old leaves which no man numbers | A |
| Chattering tap against the pane | B |
| And the midnight wind is wailing | C |
| Till you very life seems quailing | C |
| As the long gusts shudder and sigh | D |
| Know you not that homeless cry | D |
| Is my love's which cannot die | D |
| Wailing through Eternity | E |
| - | |
| When beside the glowing embers | A |
| Sitting in the twilight lone | F |
| Drop on drop you hear November's | A |
| Melancholy monotone | F |
| As the heavy rain comes sweeping | C |
| With a sound of weeping weeping | C |
| Till your blood is chilled with fears | A |
| Know you not those falling tears | A |
| Flowing fast through years on years | A |
| For my sobs within your ears | A |
| - | |
| When with dolorous moan the billows | A |
| Surge around where far and wide | G |
| Leagues on leagues of sea worn hollows | A |
| Throb with thunders of the tide | G |
| And the weary waves in breaking | C |
| Fill you thrill you as with aching | C |
| Memories of our love of yore | H |
| Where you pace the sounding shore | H |
| Hear you not through roll and roar | H |
| Soul call soul for evermore | H |
