On Christmas Eve Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAABB CDCC DD| In byre and barn the mows are brim with sheaves | A |
| Where stealeth in with phosphorescent tread | B |
| The glimmering moon and neath his wattled eaves | A |
| The kennelled hound unto the darkness grieves | A |
| His chilly straw and from his gloom lit shed | B |
| The wakeful cock proclaims the midnight dread | B |
| - | |
| With mullioned windows mid its skeleton trees | C |
| Beneath the moon the ancient manor stands | D |
| Old gables rattle in the midnight breeze | C |
| Old elms make answer to the moaning seas | C |
| - | |
| Beyond the moorlands on the wintry sands | D |
| While drives the gust along the leafless lands | D |
