The Tear Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFCF| On beds of snow the moonbeam slept | A |
| And chilly was the midnight gloom | B |
| When by the damp grave Ellen wept | A |
| Fond maid it was her Lindor's tomb | B |
| - | |
| A warm tear gushed the wintry air | C |
| Congealed it as it flowed away | D |
| All night it lay an ice drop there | C |
| At morn it glittered in the ray | D |
| - | |
| An angel wandering from her sphere | E |
| Who saw this bright this frozen gem | F |
| To dew eyed Pity brought the tear | C |
| And hung it on her diadem | F |
