Before Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBBBA BCBBCBCome in this hour to set my spirit free | A |
When earth is no more mine though night goes out | B |
And stretching forth these arms I cannot be | A |
Lord of winged sunrise and dim Arcady | B |
When fieldward boys far off with clack and shout | B |
From orchards scare the birds in sudden rout | B |
Come ere my heart grows cold and full of doubt | B |
In the still summer dawns that waken me | A |
- | |
When the first lark goes up to look for day | B |
And morning glimmers out of dreams come then | C |
Out of the songless valleys over grey | B |
Wide misty lands to bring me on my way | B |
For I am lone a dweller among men | C |
Hungered for what my heart shall never say | B |
