Thoughts During Sickness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCCBBDBDBB| O THOUGHT O Memory gems for ever heaping | A |
| High in the illumined chambers of the mind | B |
| And thou divine Imagination keeping | A |
| Thy lamp's lone star 'mid shadowy hosts enshrined | B |
| How in one moment rent and disentwined | B |
| At Fever's fiery touch apart they fall | C |
| Your glorious combinations broken all | C |
| As the sand pillars by the desert's wind | B |
| Scatter'd to whirling dust Oh soon uncrown'd | B |
| Well may your parting swift your strange return | D |
| Subdue the soul to lowliness profound | B |
| Guiding its chasten'd vision to discern | D |
| How by meek Faith Heaven's portals must be pass'd | B |
| Ere it can hold your gifts inalienably fast | B |
