What Is Right Living? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEBFGHIJKBLWhat is right living Just to do your best | A |
When worst seems easier To bear the ills | B |
Of daily life with patient cheerfulness | B |
Nor waste dear time recounting them | C |
To talk | D |
Of hopeful things when doubt is in the air | E |
To count your blessings often giving thanks | B |
And to accept your sorrows silently | F |
Nor question why you suffer To accept | G |
The whole of life as one perfected plan | H |
And welcome each event as part of it | I |
To work and love your work to trust to pray | J |
For larger usefulness and clearer sight | K |
This is right living pleasing in God's eyes | B |
Though you be heathen heretic or Jew | L |
