The Last Betrayal Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDB EEFGGFAND 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 |
