On The Death Of Sir Henry Taylor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADDEFEF| Fourscore and five times has the gradual year | A |
| Risen and fulfilled its days of youth and eld | B |
| Since first the child's eyes opening first beheld | B |
| Light who now leaves behind to help us here | C |
| Light shed from song as starlight from a sphere | A |
| Serene as summer song whose charm compelled | B |
| The sovereign soul made flesh in Artevelde | B |
| To stand august before us and austere | A |
| Half sad with mortal knowledge all sublime | D |
| With trust that takes no taint from change or time | D |
| Trust in man's might of manhood Strong and sage | E |
| Clothed round with reverence of remembering hearts | F |
| He twin born with our nigh departing age | E |
| Into the light of peace and fame departs | F |
