Farewell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABB CDCAD AEAFG HIHII AAAAA| For the last time maybe upon the knoll | A |
| I stand The eve is golden languid sad | B |
| Day like a tragic actor plays his role | A |
| To the last whispered word and falls gold clad | B |
| I too take leave of all I ever had | B |
| - | |
| They shall not say I went with heavy heart | C |
| Heavy I am but soon I shall be free | D |
| I love them all but oh I now depart | C |
| A little sadly strangely fearfully | A |
| As one who goes to try a mystery | D |
| - | |
| The bell is sounding down in Dedham vale | A |
| Be still O bell too often standing here | E |
| When all the air was tremulous fine and pale | A |
| Thy golden note so calm so still so clear | F |
| Out of my stony heart has struck a tear | G |
| - | |
| And now tears are not mine I have release | H |
| From all the former and the later pain | I |
| Like the mid sea I rock in boundless peace | H |
| Soothed by the charity of the deep sea rain | I |
| Calm rain Calm sea Calm found long sought in vain | I |
| - | |
| O bronzen pines evening of gold and blue | A |
| Steep mellow slope brimmed twilit pools below | A |
| Hushed trees still vale dissolving in the dew | A |
| Farewell Farewell There is no more to do | A |
| We have been happy Happy now I go | A |
