The Young May Moon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBACCDDC AAEEACCFFC| The young May moon is beaming love | A |
| The glow worm's lamp is gleaming love | A |
| How sweet to rove | B |
| Through Morna's grove | B |
| When the drowsy world is dreaming love | A |
| Then awake the heavens look bright my dear | C |
| 'Tis never too late for delight my dear | C |
| And the best of all ways | D |
| To lengthen our days | D |
| Is to steal a few hours from the night my dear | C |
| - | |
| Now all the world is sleeping love | A |
| But the Sage his star watch keeping love | A |
| And I whose star | E |
| More glorious far | E |
| Is the eye from that casement peeping love | A |
| Then awake till rise of sun my dear | C |
| The Sage's glass we'll shun my dear | C |
| Or in watching the flight | F |
| Of bodies of light | F |
| He might happen to take thee for one my dear | C |
