Transfigured Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DEDEEDAs growth of form or momentary glance | A |
In a child's features will recall to mind | B |
The father's with the mother's face combin'd | B |
Sweet interchange that memories still enhance | A |
And yet as childhood's years and youth's advance | A |
The gradual mouldings leave one stamp behind | B |
Till in the blended likeness now we find | B |
A separate man's or woman's countenance | C |
- | |
So in the Song the singer's Joy and Pain | D |
Its very parents evermore expand | E |
To bid the passion's fullgrown birth remain | D |
By Art's transfiguring essence subtly spann'd | E |
And from that song cloud shaped as a man's hand | E |
There comes the sound as of abundant rain | D |
