Hope Overtaken Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBA DEFDEF| I deemed thy garments O my Hope were grey | A |
| So far I viewed thee Now the space between | B |
| Is passed at length and garmented in green | B |
| Even as in days of yore thou stand'st to day | A |
| Ah God and but for lingering dull dismay | A |
| On all that road our footsteps erst had been | C |
| Even thus commingled and our shadows seen | B |
| Blent on the hedgerows and the water way | A |
| - | |
| O Hope of mine whose eyes are living love | D |
| No eyes but hers O Love and Hope the same | E |
| Lean close to me for now the sinking sun | F |
| That warmed our feet scarce gilds our hair above | D |
| O hers thy voice and very hers thy name | E |
| Alas cling round me for the day is done | F |
