The City In Moonlight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD BEBE

Dear city in the moonlight dreamingA
How changed and lovely is your faceB
Where is the sordid busy schemingA
That filled all day the market placeB
-
Was it but fancy that a rabbleC
Of money changers bought and soldD
Filling with sacrilegious babbleC
This temple court of solemn goldD
-
Ah no poor captive slave of CroesusB
His bond maid all the toiling dayE
You like some hunted child of JesusB
Steal out beneath the moon to prayE
