Lines Written While Sailing In A Boat At Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH

How richly glows the water's breastA
Before us tinged with evening huesB
While facing thus the crimson westA
The boat her silent course pursuesB
And see how dark the backward streamC
A little moment past so smilingD
And still perhaps with faithless gleamC
Some other loiterers beguilingD
-
Such views the youthful Bard allureE
But heedless of the following gloomF
He deems their colours shall endureE
Till peace go with him to the tombF
And let him nurse his fond deceitG
And what if he must die in sorrowH
Who would not cherish dreams so sweetG
Though grief and pain may come to morrowH

William Wordsworth
