Charm, The Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADBDEDFG GEF DDFHIIHJJBJB| In darkness the loud sea makes moan | A |
| And earth is shaken and all evils creep | B |
| About her ways | C |
| Oh now to know you sleep | B |
| Out of the whirling blinding moil alone | A |
| Out of the slow grim fight | D |
| One thought to wing to you asleep | B |
| In some cool room that's open to the night | D |
| Lying half forward breathing quietly | E |
| One white hand on the white | D |
| Unrumpled sheet and the ever moving hair | F |
| Quiet and still at length | G |
| - | |
| Your magic and your beauty and your strength | G |
| Like hills at noon or sunlight on a tree | E |
| Sleeping prevail in earth and air | F |
| - | |
| In the sweet gloom above the brown and white | D |
| Night benedictions hover and the winds of night | D |
| Move gently round the room and watch you there | F |
| And through the dreadful hours | H |
| The trees and waters and the hills have kept | I |
| The sacred vigil while you slept | I |
| And lay a way of dew and flowers | H |
| Where your feet your morning feet shall tread | J |
| And still the darkness ebbs about your bed | J |
| Quiet and strange and loving kind you sleep | B |
| And holy joy about the earth is shed | J |
| And holiness upon the deep | B |
