Tears Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDABEFGHIHJHKA

Tears tears tearsA
In the night in solitude tearsA
On the white shore dripping dripping suck'd in by the sandB
Tears not a star shining all dark and desolateC
Moist tears from the eyes of a muffled headD
O who is that ghost that form in the dark with tearsA
What shapeless lump is that bent crouch'd there on the sandB
Streaming tears sobbing tears throes choked with wild criesE
O storm embodied rising careering with swift steps along theF
beachG
O wild and dismal night storm with wind O belching andH
desperateI
O shade so sedate and decorous by day with calm countenance andH
regulated paceJ
But away at night as you fly none looking O then the unloosen'dH
oceanK
Of tears tears tearsA
