Heaven And Hell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDCEE| While forced to dwell apart from thy dear face | A |
| Love robed like sorrow led me by the hand | B |
| And taught my doubting heart to understand | B |
| That which has puzzled all the human race | A |
| Full many a sage has questioned where in space | A |
| Those counter worlds were where the mystic strand | B |
| That separates them I have found each land | B |
| And Hell is vast and Heaven a narrow space | A |
| - | |
| In the small compass of thy clasping arms | C |
| In reach and sight of thy dear lips and eyes | D |
| There there for me the joy of Heaven lies | D |
| Outside lo chaos terrors' wild alarms | C |
| And all the desolation fierce and fell | E |
| Of void and aching nothingness makes Hell | E |
