No Place Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EEEE FGFG CHCH| When days grow long and brain and hands grow weary | A |
| And hot the city street | B |
| Forth to the haunts by cooling winds made cheery | A |
| We fly with willing feet | B |
| - | |
| We leave our cares and labours all behind us | C |
| The city's noise and din | D |
| And hid securely where they cannot find us | C |
| We drink the sunshine in | D |
| - | |
| But when the days grow long with bitter sorrow | E |
| And hearts grow sick with woe | E |
| Where are the haunts that we may seek to morrow | E |
| Where can we hide or go | E |
| - | |
| Holds earth no nook where hearts with sorrow breaking | F |
| May find a summer's rest | G |
| A season's respite from the weary aching | F |
| That gnaws within the breast | G |
| - | |
| O God if we could fly and leave behind us | C |
| Our crosses and our grief | H |
| Could hide a season where they could not find us | C |
| What infinite relief | H |
