Aspiration Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBC DEDEED| Oh deep eyed brothers was there ever here | A |
| Or is there now or shall there sometime be | B |
| Harbour or any rest for such as we | B |
| Lone thin cheeked mariners that aye must steer | C |
| Our whispering barks with such keen hope and fear | C |
| Toward misty bournes across the coastless sea | B |
| Whose winds are songs that ever gust and flee | B |
| Whose shores are dreams that tower but come not near | C |
| - | |
| Yet we perchance for all that flesh and mind | D |
| Of many ills be marked with many a trace | E |
| Shall find this life more sweet more strangely kind | D |
| Than they of that dim hearted earthly race | E |
| Who creep firm nailed upon the earth's hard face | E |
| And hear nor see not being deaf and blind | D |
