By Way Of Remembrance Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCECDRemember if I claim too much of you | A |
I claim it of my brother and my friend | B |
Have patience with me till the hidden end | B |
Bitter or sweet in mercy shut from view | A |
Pay me my due though I to pay your due | A |
Am all too poor and past what will can mend | B |
Thus of your bounty you must give and lend | B |
Still unrepaid by aught I look to do | A |
Still unrepaid by aught of mine on earth | C |
But overpaid please God when recompense | D |
Beyond the mystic Jordan and new birth | C |
Is dealt to virtue as to innocence | E |
When Angels singing praises in their mirth | C |
Have borne you in their arms and fetched you hence | D |
