Oh, Sweet Content! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHBH| Oh sweet content that turns the labourer's sweat | A |
| To tears of joy and shines the roughest face | B |
| How often have I sought you high and low | C |
| And found you still in some lone quiet place | B |
| - | |
| Here in my room when full of happy dreams | D |
| With no life heard beyond that merry sound | E |
| Of moths that on my lighted ceiling kiss | F |
| Their shadows as they dance and dance around | E |
| - | |
| Or in a garden on a summer's night | G |
| When I have seen the dark and solemn air | H |
| Blink with the blind bats' wings and heaven's bright face | B |
| Twitch with the stars that shine in thousands there | H |
