Before, Behind, And Beyond Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABBBA ACCADDDA ABBEBBBE| O the sunny days before us before us before us | A |
| When all was bright | B |
| From holt to height | B |
| And the heavens were shining o'er us | A |
| When sound and scent with vision blent | B |
| Wing d Hope and perched Content | B |
| Joys that came and ills that went | B |
| Seemed singing all in chorus | A |
| - | |
| O the dreary days behind us behind us behind us | A |
| When all is dark | C |
| And care and cark | C |
| Or transient gleams remind us | A |
| Of fruitless sighs averted eyes | D |
| Baffled hopes and loosened ties | D |
| Pain that lingers time that flies | D |
| And the hot tears come and blind us | A |
| - | |
| Oh is there nought beyond us beyond us beyond us | A |
| When all the dead | B |
| The changed the fled | B |
| Will rise and look as fond as | E |
| Ere Faith put out and Love in rout | B |
| Foes with vigour friends without | B |
| Pique and rancour make us doubt | B |
| Hoc tolerare pondus | E |
