A Song Of Eternity In Time Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCCCB DDDBEFFB G| Once at night in the manor wood | A |
| My Love and I long silent stood | A |
| Amazed that any heavens could | A |
| Decree to part us bitterly repining | B |
| My Love in aimless love and grief | C |
| Reached forth and drew aside a leaf | C |
| That just above us played the thief | C |
| And stole our starlight that for us was shining | B |
| - | |
| A star that had remarked her pain | D |
| Shone straightway down that leafy lane | D |
| And wrought his image mirror plain | D |
| Within a tear that on her lash hung gleaming | B |
| Thus Time I cried is but a tear | E |
| Some one hath wept 'twixt hope and fear | F |
| Yet in his little lucent sphere | F |
| Our star of stars Eternity is beaming | B |
