Lost Days Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DED D| The lost days of my life until to day | A |
| What were they could I see them on the street | B |
| Lie as they fell Would they be ears of wheat | B |
| Sown once for food but trodden into clay | A |
| Or golden coins squandered and still to pay | A |
| Or drops of blood dabbling the guilty feet | B |
| Or such spilt water as in dreams must cheat | B |
| The throats of men in Hell who thirst alway | C |
| - | |
| I do not see them here but after death | D |
| God knows I know the faces I shall see | E |
| Each one a murdered self with low last breath | D |
| 'I am thyself what hast thou done to me ' | - |
| 'And I and I thyself ' lo each one saith | D |
| 'And thou thyself to all eternity ' | - |
