A Nocturne Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFCGCHGCDThe Moon has gone to her rest | A |
A full hour ago | B |
The Pleiads have found a nest | A |
In the waves below | B |
Slow the Hours one by one | C |
In Midnight's footsteps creep | D |
Lovers who lie alone | E |
Soon wake to weep | D |
Slow footed tortoise Hours will ye not hasten on | F |
Till from his prison | C |
In the golden East | G |
A new day shall have risen | C |
And the last stars be gone | H |
Like guests belated from a bridal feast | G |
When the long night is done | C |
Then shall ye sleep | D |
