After Many Days Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG HIHI JKJK LMLM| The mist hangs round the College tower | A |
| The ghostly street | B |
| Is silent at this midnight hour | A |
| Save for my feet | B |
| - | |
| With none to see with none to hear | C |
| Downward I go | D |
| To where beside the rugged pier | E |
| The sea sings low | D |
| - | |
| It sings a tune well loved and known | F |
| In days gone by | G |
| When often here and not alone | F |
| I watched the sky | G |
| - | |
| That was a barren time at best | H |
| Its fruits were few | I |
| But fruits and flowers had keener zest | H |
| And fresher hue | I |
| - | |
| Life has not since been wholly vain | J |
| And now I bear | K |
| Of wisdom plucked from joy and pain | J |
| Some slender share | K |
| - | |
| But howsoever rich the store | L |
| I'd lay it down | M |
| To feel upon my back once more | L |
| The old red gown | M |
