To Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBA CDCDDC| Asleep within the deadest hour of night | A |
| And turning with the earth I was aware | B |
| How suddenly the eastern curve was bright | A |
| As when the sun arises from his lair | B |
| But not the sun arose It was thy hair | B |
| Shaken up heaven in tossing leagues of light | A |
| - | |
| Since then I know that neither night nor day | C |
| May I escape thee O my heavenly hell | D |
| Awake in dreams thou springest to waylay | C |
| And should I dare to die I know full well | D |
| Whose voice would mock me in the mourning bell | D |
| Whose face would greet me in hell's fiery way | C |
