Good Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABC DEDEC FGFGC CHCHC IBIBC

The sun has sunk behind the hillsA
The shadows o'er the landscape creepB
A drowsy sound the woodland fillsA
And nature folds her arms to sleepB
Good night good nightC
-
The chattering jay has ceased his dinD
The noisy robin sings no moreE
The crow his mountain haunt withinD
Dreams 'mid the forest's surly roarE
Good night good nightC
-
The sunlit cloud floats dim and paleF
The dew is falling soft and stillG
The mist hangs trembling o'er the valeF
And silence broods o'er yonder millG
Goodnight good nightC
-
The rose so ruddy in the lightC
Bends on its stem all rayless nowH
And by its side the lily whiteC
A sister shadow seems to bowH
Good night good nightC
-
The bat may wheel on silent wingI
The fox his guilty vigils keepB
The boding owl his dirges singI
But love and innocence will sleepB
Good night good nightC
