The Sun Goes Down, On Other Lands To Shine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBAA CDEECC| The sun goes down on other lands to shine | A |
| I long to keep him but he will not stay | B |
| Only in fancy can I wing my way | B |
| To overtake him to recatch each ray | B |
| Warmer and warmer till at last is mine | A |
| In fancy that loved gaze that light divine | A |
| - | |
| Now close the dewy flowers that morn's first peep | C |
| To sunshine opened and I too must close | D |
| My leaves up and in silence and repose | E |
| Baptize my spirit See the last gleam goes | E |
| Now is it time neither to joy nor weep | C |
| Only to lay the head down and to sleep | C |
