Victory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCD EBFBGG BBBBBB| How strange in some brief interval of rest | A |
| Backward to look on her far stretching past | B |
| To see how much is conquered and repressed | A |
| How much is gained in victory at last | B |
| The shadow is not lifted but her faith | C |
| Strong from life's miracles now turns toward death | D |
| - | |
| Though much be dark where once rare splendor shone | E |
| Yet the new light has touched high peaks unguessed | B |
| In her gold mist bathed dawn and one by one | F |
| New outlooks loom from many a mountain crest | B |
| She breathes a loftier purer atmosphere | G |
| And life's entangled paths grow straight and clear | G |
| - | |
| Nor will Death prove an all unwelcome guest | B |
| The struggle has been toilsome to this end | B |
| Sleep will be sweet and after labor rest | B |
| And all will be atoned with him to friend | B |
| Much must be reconciled much justified | B |
| And yet she feels she will be satisfied | B |
