To Clementina Black Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDDC EEMore blest than was of old Diogenes | A |
I have not held my lantern up in vain | B |
Not mine at least this evil to complain | B |
There is none honest among all of these | A |
- | |
Our hopes go down that sailed before the breeze | A |
Our creeds upon the rock are rent in twain | B |
Something it is if at the last remain | B |
One floating spar cast up by hungry seas | A |
- | |
The secret of our being who can tell | C |
To praise the gods and Fate is not my part | D |
Evil I see and pain within my heart | D |
There is no voice that whispers All is well | C |
- | |
Yet fair are days in summer and more fair | E |
The growths of human goodness here and there | E |
