Before The Curfew Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCBBBD EFEEEF G| At My Fireside | A |
| - | |
| Alone beneath the darkened sky | B |
| With saddened heart and unstrung lyre | C |
| I heap the spoils of years gone by | B |
| And leave them with a long drawn sigh | B |
| Like drift wood brands that glimmering lie | B |
| Before the ashes hide the fire | D |
| - | |
| Let not these slow declining days | E |
| The rosy light of dawn outlast | F |
| Still round my lonely hearth it plays | E |
| And gilds the east with borrowed rays | E |
| While memory's mirrored sunset blaze | E |
| Flames on the windows of the past | F |
| - | |
| March | G |
