Summer's Evening. (from The Villager's Verse-book.) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG| As homeward by the evening star | A |
| I pass along the plain | B |
| I see the taper's light afar | A |
| Shine through our cottage pane | B |
| - | |
| My brothers and my sisters dear | C |
| The child upon the knee | D |
| Spring when my hastening steps they hear | E |
| And smile to welcome me | D |
| - | |
| But when the fire is growing dim | F |
| And mother's labours cease | G |
| I fold my hands repeat my hymn | F |
| And lay me down in peace | G |
