On The Deaths Of Thomas Carlyle - Sonnets Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABBCDDCTwo souls diverse out of our human sight | A |
Pass followed one with love and each with wonder | B |
The stormy sophist with his mouth of thunder | B |
Clothed with loud words and mantled in the might | A |
Of darkness and magnificence of night | A |
And one whose eye could smite the night in sunder | B |
Searching if light or no light were thereunder | B |
And found in love of loving kindness light | A |
Duty divine and Thought with eyes of fire | B |
Still following Righteousness with deep desire | B |
Shone sole and stern before her and above | C |
Sure stars and sole to steer by but more sweet | D |
Shone lower the loveliest lamp for earthly feet | D |
The light of little children and their love | C |
