On A Grave In The Forest Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBABACDECDF| Hush gentle stranger Here lies one asleep | A |
| In the tall grass whom we must not awaken | B |
| For see the wildest winds hush here and keep | A |
| Silence for her and not a leaf is shaken | B |
| Lest she should wake and find herself forsaken | B |
| Close to my feet aweary did she creep | A |
| And slept and she is sweetly still mistaken | B |
| Deeming I stand by her and watch her sleep | A |
| Hush gentle stranger One as gentle lies | C |
| In this poor grave and weep before you go | D |
| For one who knew no weeping yet abode | E |
| Among our human sorrows and was wise | C |
| With tenderer sympathy than tears can show | D |
| The gentlest kindliest creature made by God | F |
