Mad Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDE BFBFBBCB BGBGBBHH

The wild winds weepA
And the night is a coldB
Come hither SleepA
And my griefs infoldB
But lo the morning peepsC
Over the eastern steepsC
And the rustling birds of dawnD
The earth do scornE
-
Lo to the vaultB
Of paved heavenF
With sorrow fraughtB
My notes are drivenF
They strike the ear of nightB
Make weep the eyes of dayB
They make mad the roaring windsC
And with tempests playB
-
Like a fiend in a cloudB
With howling woeG
After night I do crowdB
And with night will goG
I turn my back to the eastB
From whence comforts have increas'dB
For light doth seize my brainH
With frantic painH

William Blake
