To ----- Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD BEBF GHGH IJKJ| Ah little thought she when with wild delight | A |
| By many a torrent's shining track she flew | B |
| When mountain glens and caverns full of night | A |
| O'er her young mind divine enchantment threw | B |
| - | |
| That in her veins a secret horror slept | C |
| That her light footsteps should be heard no more | D |
| That she should die nor watch'd alas nor wept | C |
| By thee unconscious of the pangs she bore | D |
| - | |
| Yet round her couch indulgent Fancy drew | B |
| The kindred forms her closing eye requir'd | E |
| There didst thou stand there with the smile she knew | B |
| She mov'd her lips to bless thee and expir'd | F |
| - | |
| And now to thee she comes still still the same | G |
| As in the hours gone unregarded by | H |
| To thee how chang'd comes as she ever came | G |
| Health on her cheek and pleasure in her eye | H |
| - | |
| Nor less less oft as on that day appears | I |
| When lingering as prophetic of the truth | J |
| By the way side she shed her parting tears | K |
| For ever lovely in the light of Youth | J |
