Serenade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCBDBEEFEFAh sweet thou little knowest how | A |
I wake and passionate watches keep | B |
And yet while I address thee now | A |
Methinks thou smilest in thy sleep | B |
'Tis sweet enough to make me weep | B |
That tender thought of love and thee | C |
That while the world is hush'd so deep | B |
Thy soul's perhaps awake to me | C |
Sleep on sleep on sweet bride of sleep | B |
With golden visions of thy dower | D |
While I this midnight vigil keep | B |
And bless thee in thy silent bower | E |
To me 'tis sweeter than the power | E |
Of sleep and fairy dreams unfurl'd | F |
That I alone at this still hour | E |
In patient love outwatch the world | F |
