Tears Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADED EDE| THANK God bless God all ye who suffer not | A |
| More grief than ye can weep for That is well | B |
| That is light grieving lighter none befell | B |
| Since Adam forfeited the primal lot | A |
| Tears what are tears The babe weeps in its cot | A |
| The mother singing at her marriage bell | B |
| The bride weeps and before the oracle | C |
| Of high faned hills the poet has forgot | A |
| Such moisture on his cheeks Thank God for grace | D |
| Ye who weep only If as some have done | E |
| Ye grope tear blinded in a desert place | D |
| - | |
| And touch but tombs look up I those tears will run | E |
| Soon in long rivers down the lifted face | D |
| And leave the vision clear for stars and sun | E |
