The Turning-point Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECFG| AT length I sickened standing in the sun | A |
| Truthful and for the Truth whose only fees | B |
| Are madness and sharp death I bowed my knees | B |
| And said As long as the world's years have run | A |
| These accents have been said and these things done | A |
| That which is mine abasement is their ease | B |
| They say Go to all this is as we please | B |
| Shall we being many step aside for one | A |
| And thus it is that though the air be new | C |
| And my brow finds the coolness it hath sought | D |
| Through the slow stricken night the daily curse | E |
| Weighs on my soul of what I waken to | C |
| For though I loathe the price this must be bought | F |
| Thou fool Would'st buy from man what God confers | G |
