Resurgam Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDCE| From depth to height from height to loftier height | A |
| The climber sets his foot and sets his face | B |
| Tracks lingering sunbeams to their halting place | B |
| And counts the last pulsations of the light | A |
| Strenuous thro' day and unsurprised by night | A |
| He runs a race with Time and wins the race | B |
| Emptied and stripped of all save only Grace | B |
| Will Love a threefold panoply of might | A |
| Darkness descends for light he toiled to seek | C |
| He stumbles on the darkened mountain head | D |
| Left breathless in the unbreathable thin air | E |
| Made freeman of the living and the dead | D |
| He wots not he has topped the topmost peak | C |
| But the returning sun will find him there | E |
