Renouncement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| I must not think of thee and tired yet strong | A |
| I shun the love that lurks in all delight | B |
| The love of thee and in the blue heaven's height | B |
| And in the dearest passage of a song | A |
| Oh just beyond the sweetest 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 gather'd to thy heart | E |
