Rhyme Scheme: A BCDE FGHG CCIC JKLMA | |
- | |
It would have starved a Gnat | B |
To live so small as I | C |
And yet I was a living Child | D |
With Food's necessity | E |
- | |
Upon me like a Claw | F |
I could no more remove | G |
Than I could coax a Leech away | H |
Or make a Dragon move | G |
- | |
Not like the Gnat had I | C |
The privilege to fly | C |
And seek a Dinner for myself | I |
How mightier He than I | C |
- | |
Nor like Himself the Art | J |
Upon the Window Pane | K |
To gad my little Being out | L |
And not begin again | M |
