Rhyme Scheme: ABABB CDCDD EFGFFI dreamed and did not seek to day I seek | A |
Who can no longer dream | B |
But now am all behindhand waxen weak | A |
And dazed amid so many things that gleam | B |
Yet are not what they seem | B |
- | |
I dreamed and did not work to day I work | C |
Kept wide awake by care | D |
And loss and perils dimly guessed to lurk | C |
I work and reap not while my life goes bare | D |
And void in wintry air | D |
- | |
I hope indeed but hope itself is fear | E |
Viewed on the sunny side | F |
I hope and disregard the world that's here | G |
The prizes drawn the sweet things that betide | F |
I hope and I abide | F |
