Winter Evening At Home Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACCDEEDFFGGHH| Fair Moon that at the chilly day's decline | A |
| Of sharp December through my cottage pane | B |
| Dost lovely look smiling though in thy wane | B |
| In thought to scenes serene and still as thine | A |
| Wanders my heart whilst I by turns survey | C |
| Thee slowly wheeling on thy evening way | C |
| And this my fire whose dim unequal light | D |
| Just glimmering bids each shadowy image fall | E |
| Sombrous and strange upon the darkening wall | E |
| Ere the clear tapers chase the deepening night | D |
| Yet thy still orb seen through the freezing haze | F |
| Shines calm and clear without and whilst I gaze | F |
| I think around me in this twilight room | G |
| I but remark mortality's sad gloom | G |
| Whilst hope and joy cloudless and soft appear | H |
| In the sweet beam that lights thy distant sphere | H |
