The Revelation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEF| An idle poet here and there | A |
| Looks around him but for all the rest | B |
| The world unfathomably fair | A |
| Is duller than a witling's jest | B |
| Love wakes men once a lifetime each | C |
| They lift their heavy lids and look | D |
| And lo what one sweet page can teach | C |
| They read with joy then shut the book | D |
| And some give thanks and some blaspheme | E |
| And most forget but either way | F |
| That and the Child's unheeded dream | E |
| Is all the light of all their day | F |
