Charing Cross Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBA DEFEDF| At five o'clock they ring a tinkly bell | A |
| The April dawn glimmers along the beds | B |
| There is a lifting up of weary heads | B |
| From weary pillows Our old citadel | A |
| Hath still held out and while the miracle | C |
| Of morning is unbared again and spreads | B |
| All the young East with greens and blues and reds | B |
| Each of us wakes to his particular hell | A |
| - | |
| But even on this bitter shore of Styx | D |
| Where Life to dogged Death puts the last schism | E |
| We kindle for the ending of the dark | F |
| The Asthma feebly jokes the Aneurism | E |
| The little bandaged boy in Number Six | D |
| Sings Ye shall die with a voice like a lark | F |
