The Spirit's Depths Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFEFGHGH| Not in the crisis of events | A |
| Of compass'd hopes or fears fulfill'd | B |
| Or acts of gravest consequence | C |
| Are life's delight and depth reveal'd | D |
| The day of days was not the day | E |
| That went before or was postponed | F |
| The night Death took our lamp away | E |
| Was not the night on which we groan'd | F |
| I drew my bride beneath the moon | G |
| Across my threshold happy hour | H |
| But ah the walk that afternoon | G |
| We saw the water flags in flower | H |
