The Birthnight: To F Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDDEFEF| Dearest it was a night | A |
| That in its darkness rocked Orion's stars | B |
| A sighing wind ran faintly white | A |
| Along the willows and the cedar boughs | C |
| Laid their wide hands in stealthy peace across | D |
| The starry silence of their antique moss | D |
| No sound save rushing air | E |
| Cold yet all sweet with Spring | F |
| And in thy mother's arms couched weeping there | E |
| Thou lovely thing | F |
