The Lamp Of Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEEC| Always we are following a light | A |
| Always the light recedes with groping hands | B |
| We stretch toward this glory while the lands | B |
| We journey through are hidden from our sight | A |
| Dim and mysterious folded deep in night | A |
| We care not all our utmost need demands | B |
| Is but the light the light So still it stands | B |
| Surely our own if we exert our might | A |
| Fool Never can'st thou grasp this fleeting gleam | C |
| Its glowing flame would die if it were caught | D |
| Its value is that it doth always seem | C |
| But just a little farther on Distraught | E |
| But lighted ever onward we are brought | E |
| Upon our way unknowing in a dream | C |
