Tears Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDABEFGHIHJHKA| Tears tears tears | A |
| In the night in solitude tears | A |
| On the white shore dripping dripping suck'd in by the sand | B |
| Tears not a star shining all dark and desolate | C |
| Moist tears from the eyes of a muffled head | D |
| O who is that ghost that form in the dark with tears | A |
| What shapeless lump is that bent crouch'd there on the sand | B |
| Streaming tears sobbing tears throes choked with wild cries | E |
| O storm embodied rising careering with swift steps along the | F |
| beach | G |
| O wild and dismal night storm with wind O belching and | H |
| desperate | I |
| O shade so sedate and decorous by day with calm countenance and | H |
| regulated pace | J |
| But away at night as you fly none looking O then the unloosen'd | H |
| ocean | K |
| Of tears tears tears | A |
