The Unremitting Voice Of Nightly Streams Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCACDEEAFFGGG| The unremitting voice of nightly streams | A |
| That wastes so oft we think its tuneful powers | B |
| If neither soothing to the worm that gleams | A |
| Through dewy grass nor small birds hushed in bowers | B |
| Nor unto silent leaves and drowsy flowers | B |
| That voice of unpretending harmony | C |
| For who what is shall measure by what seems | A |
| To be or not to be | C |
| Or tax high Heaven with prodigality | D |
| Wants not a healing influence that can creep | E |
| Into the human breast and mix with sleep | E |
| To regulate the motion of our dreams | A |
| For kindly issues as through every clime | F |
| Was felt near murmuring brooks in earliest time | F |
| As at this day the rudest swains who dwell | G |
| Where torrents roar or hear the tinkling knell | G |
| Of water breaks with grateful heart could tell | G |
