I've A Secret To Tell Thee Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGDHD

I've a secret to tell thee but hush not hereA
Oh not where the world its vigil keepsB
I'll seek to whisper it in thine earA
Some shore where the Spirit of Silence sleepsB
Where Summer's wave unmurmuring diesC
Nor fay can hear the fountain's gushD
Where if but a note her night bird sighsC
The rose saith chidingly Hush sweet hushD
-
There amid the deep silence of that hourE
When stars can be heard in ocean dipF
Thyself shall under some rosy bowerE
Sit mute with thy finger on thy lipF
Like him the boy who born amongG
The flowers that on the Nile stream blushD
Sits ever thus his only songH
To earth and heaven Hush all hushD

Thomas Moore
