Hark! 'tis The Breeze. (air.--rousseau.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACADAD EFEFGHGH| Hark 'tis the breeze of twilight calling | A |
| Earth's weary children to repose | B |
| While round the couch of Nature falling | A |
| Gently the night's soft curtains close | C |
| Soon o'er a world in sleep reclining | A |
| Numberless stars thro' yonder dark | D |
| Shall look like eyes of Cherubs shining | A |
| From out the veils that hid the Ark | D |
| - | |
| Guard us oh Thou who never sleepest | E |
| Thou who in silence throned above | F |
| Throughout all time unwearied keepest | E |
| Thy watch of Glory Power and Love | F |
| Grant that beneath thine eye securely | G |
| Our souls awhile from life withdrawn | H |
| May in their darkness stilly purely | G |
| Like sealed fountains rest till dawn | H |
