Dream-death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEFEGG| There is a breath at midnight that comes in | A |
| Sad as a sigh for then the day is dead | B |
| And the young morrow doth his course begin | A |
| Sowing new dreams in many a dreamer's head | B |
| And there are two have waked in one dark bed | B |
| Just as the last stroke fades in lonely air | C |
| And having whispered half awake have sped | B |
| With silent feet into sleep's poppied lair | C |
| She with the morning wakes but he is gone | D |
| Her tears and kisses are of no avail | E |
| Perchance it was his good bye murmured on | F |
| The midnight in death's visionary dale | E |
| Ah woe she thought 'twas in sleep's fairyland | G |
| When in the dark he pressed her warm soft hand | G |
