Sympathy (ii) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCABAABDEDEFFTherefore I dare reveal my private woe | A |
The secret blots of my imperfect heart | B |
Nor strive to shrink or swell mine own desert | C |
Nor beautify nor hide For this I know | A |
That even as I am thou also art | B |
Thou past heroic forms unmoved shalt go | A |
To pause and bide with me to whisper low | A |
Not I alone am weak not I apart | B |
Must suffer struggle conquer day by day | D |
Here is my very cross by strangers borne | E |
Here is my bosom sun wherefrom I pray | D |
Hourly deliverance this my rose my thorn | E |
This woman my soul's need can understand | F |
Stretching o'er silent gulfs her sister hand | F |
