Six O'clock Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| Now burst above the city's cold twilight | A |
| The piercing whistles and the tower clocks | B |
| For day is done Along the frozen docks | B |
| The workmen set their ragged shirts aright | A |
| Thro' factory doors a stream of dingy light | A |
| Follows the scrimmage as it quickly flocks | B |
| To hut and home among the snow's gray blocks | B |
| I love you human labourers Good night | A |
| Good night to all the blackened arms that ache | C |
| Good night to every sick and sweated brow | D |
| To the poor girl that strength and love forsake | C |
| To the poor boy who can no more I vow | D |
| The victim soon shall shudder at the stake | C |
| And fall in blood we bring him even now | D |
