I Give To You These Verses Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEFD GHG IIH| I give to you these verses that if in | A |
| Some future time my name lands happily | B |
| To bring brief pleasure to humanity | B |
| The craft supported by a great north wind | C |
| - | |
| Your memory like tales from ancient times | D |
| Will bore the reader like a dulcimer | E |
| And by a strange fraternal chain live here | F |
| As if suspended in my lofty rhymes | D |
| - | |
| From deepest pit into the highest sky | G |
| Damned being only I can bear you now | H |
| shadow barely present to the eye | G |
| - | |
| You lightly step with a serene regard | I |
| On mortal fools who've judged you mean and hard | I |
| Angel with eyes of jet great burnished brow | H |
