To The Rain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFCGCG| Come forth O rain from thy cool distant hall | A |
| And lave the parched brow of the feverish earth | B |
| The little drooping flow'rets on thee call | A |
| Come with thy cool touch wake them up to mirth | B |
| They will lift up glad faces to the sky | C |
| Drinking in gladness from the warm moist air | D |
| Now thirsty hot and faint they droop and die | C |
| Thou only canst revive these fainting fair | D |
| The grain has shrivelled pining after thee | E |
| And waves light headed from a sickly stalk | F |
| There's no green herbage on the sunburned lea | E |
| The glaring sun through glowing skies doth walk | F |
| Looking down hotly on sweet Allumette | C |
| Thinking to dry it with his ardent gaze | G |
| Each day a strip of sand left bare and wet | C |
| Tells how she shrinks from his pursuing rays | G |
