To The Fire-fly.[1] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EEEE| At morning when the earth and sky | A |
| Are glowing with the light of spring | B |
| We see thee not thou humble fly | A |
| Nor think upon thy gleaming wing | B |
| - | |
| But when the skies have lost their hue | C |
| And sunny lights no longer play | D |
| Oh then we see and bless thee too | C |
| For sparkling o'er the dreary way | D |
| - | |
| Thus let me hope when lost to me | E |
| The lights that now my life illume | E |
| Some milder joys may come like thee | E |
| To cheer if not to warm the gloom | E |
