Explanation:

In Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's "A Psalm of Life", the rhyme scheme is as follows:

Tell me not, in mournful numbers, A

  Life is but an empty dream! B

For the soul is dead that slumbers, A

   And things are not what they seem. B

However, in James Russel's "Auspex", though it too has a rhyme scheme, it is different than the one in "A Psalm of Life". See here:

My heart, I cannot still it, A

Nest that had song-birds in it; A

And when the last shall go, B

The dreary days to fill it, A

Instead of lark or linnet, A

Shall whirl dead leaves and snow. B
