Yet Do I Marvel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEEFFGGI doubt not God is good well meaning kind | A |
And did He stoop to quibble could tell why | B |
The little buried mole continues blind | A |
Why flesh that mirrors Him must some day die | B |
Make plain the reason tortured Tantalus | C |
Is baited by the fickle fruit declare | D |
If merely brute caprice dooms Sisyphus | C |
To struggle up a never ending stair | D |
Inscrutable His ways are and immune | E |
To catechism by a mind too strewn | E |
With petty cares to slightly understand | F |
What awful brain compels His awful hand | F |
Yet do I marvel at this curious thing | G |
To make a poet black and bid him sing | G |
