The Last Betrayal Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDB EEFGGF| AND I shall lie alone at last | A |
| Clear of the stream that ran so fast | A |
| And feel the flower roots in my hair | B |
| And in my hands the roots of trees | C |
| Myself wrapt in the ungrudging peace | D |
| That leaves no pain uncovered anywhere | B |
| - | |
| What this hope left this way not barred | E |
| This last best treasure without guard | E |
| This heaven free no prayers to pay | F |
| Fool are the Rulers of men asleep | G |
| Thou knowest what tears They bade thee weep | G |
| But when peace comes 'tis thou wilt sleep not They | F |
