Renouncement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDE CDE| I must not think of thee and tired yet strong | A |
| I shun the thought that lurks in all delight | B |
| The thought of thee and in the blue Heaven's height | B |
| And in the sweetest passage of a song | A |
| - | |
| Oh just beyond the fairest thoughts that throng | A |
| This breast the thought of thee waits hidden yet bright | B |
| But it must never never come in sight | B |
| I must stop short of thee the whole day long | A |
| - | |
| But when sleep comes to close each difficult day | C |
| When night gives pause to the long watch I keep | D |
| And all my bonds I needs must loose apart | E |
| - | |
| Must doff my will as raiment laid away | C |
| With the first dream that comes with the first sleep | D |
| I run I run I am gathered to thy heart | E |
