The Angel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH IJDK LMLD

At midnight an angel was crossing the skyA
And quietly he sangB
The moon and the stars and the concourse of cloudsC
Paid heed to his heavenly songD
-
He sang of the bliss of the innocent soulsE
In heavenly gardens aboveF
Of almighty God he sang out and his praiseG
Was pure and sincereH
-
He bore in his arms a young soulI
To our valley of sorrow and tearsJ
The young soul remembered the heavenly songD
So vivid and yet without wordsK
-
And long did it struggle on earthL
With wondrous desire imbuedM
But none of the tedious songs of our earthL
Could rival celestial songD

Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov
