The Truth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDA EEFGFG| Friend though thy soul shall burn thee yet be still | A |
| Thoughts were not meant for strife not tongues for swords | B |
| He that sees clear is gentlest of his words | C |
| And that's not truth that hath the heart to kill | A |
| The whole world's thought shall not one truth fulfill | A |
| Dull in our age and passionate in youth | D |
| No mind of man hath found the perfect truth | D |
| Nor shalt thou find it therefore friend be still | A |
| - | |
| Watch and be still not hearken to the fool | E |
| The babbler of consistency and rule | E |
| Wisest is he who never quite secure | F |
| Changes his thoughts for better day by day | G |
| To morrow some new light will shine be sure | F |
| And thou shalt see thy thought another way | G |
