The First Meeting Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDCDCD| Last night for the first time O Heart's Delight | A |
| I held your hand a moment in my own | B |
| The dearest moment which my soul has known | B |
| Since I beheld and loved you at first sight | A |
| - | |
| I left you and I wandered in the night | A |
| Under the rain beside the ocean's moan | B |
| All was black dark but in the north alone | B |
| There was a glimmer of the Northern Light | A |
| - | |
| My heart was singing like a happy bird | C |
| Glad of the present and from forethought free | D |
| Save for one note amid its music heard | C |
| God grant whatever end of this may be | D |
| That when the tale is told the final word | C |
| May be of peace and benison to thee | D |
