A Dirge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABB CDEDD FGFHH| Winds are sighing round the drooping eaves | A |
| Sadly float the midnight hours away | B |
| Dun and grey athwart the ivy leaves | A |
| Fall the first pale chilly tints of day | B |
| Ah me the weary weary tints of day | B |
| - | |
| Soon the darkness will be past and gone | C |
| Soon the silence spread its noiseless wing | D |
| Sleep will strike its tent and hurry on | E |
| Life commence its weary wandering | D |
| Ah me its weary weary wandering | D |
| - | |
| Not the sighing of my lonely heart | F |
| Not the heavy grief clouds hanging o'er | G |
| Not its silence can with night depart | F |
| Gloom hangs o'er it ever evermore | H |
| Ah me darkness ever evermore | H |
