Night And Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAB CCCB DDDB EEEB F

The innocent sweet Day is deadA
Dark Night hath slain her in her bedA
O Moors are as fierce to kill as to wedA
Put out the light said heB
-
A sweeter light than ever rayedC
From star of heaven or eye of maidC
Has vanished in the unknown ShadeC
She's dead she's dead said heB
-
Now in a wild sad after moodD
The tawny Night sits still to broodD
Upon the dawn time when he wooedD
I would she lived said heB
-
Star memories of happier timesE
Of loving deeds and lovers' rhymesE
Throng forth in silvery pantomimesE
Come back O Day said heB
