To Ellen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CCCC CDCE| And Ellen when the graybeard years | A |
| Have brought us to life's evening hour | B |
| And all the crowded Past appears | A |
| A tiny scene of sun and shower | B |
| - | |
| Then if I read the page aright | C |
| Where Hope the soothsayer reads our lot | C |
| Thyself shalt own the page was bright | C |
| Well that we loved woe had we not | C |
| - | |
| When Mirth is dumb and Flattery's fled | C |
| And mute thy music's dearest tone | D |
| When all but Love itself is dead | C |
| And all but deathless Reason gone | E |
