Special Pleading Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBC DEDEFGHG IJIKLCLC

THE world's a path all fresh and sweetA
A sky all fresh and fairB
With daisies underneath your feetA
And roses for your hairB
Red roses for your pretty hairB
Green trees to shade your wayC
And lavish blossoms everywhereB
Because the time is MayC
-
-
How gold the sun shines through the greenD
How soft the turf is spreadE
How richly falls the shimmering sheenD
About your darling headE
How in the dawn of ParadiseF
Should you foresee the nightG
How with the sunlight in your eyesH
See aught beyond the lightG
-
-
The world's a path all rough and wildI
A sky all black with fearsJ
Among the ghosts unhappy childI
You stumble blind with tearsK
The track is faint and far the foldL
And very far the dayC
Unless you have a hand to holdL
How will you find the wayC
