Lines Written On Finishing The Life Of Milton Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAC DDEFG GFHIJ HI CLOSED the book but fancied still | A |
I heard like distant music roll | B |
The far off echoes in my soul | B |
Of his great life I listened till | A |
Entranced I thought that I could hear | C |
- | |
His grand old voice amid the gloom | D |
And in the twilight flooded room | D |
I almost felt that he was near | E |
Thou didst not die O Milton when | F |
Thy life on earth had ceased to be | G |
- | |
They never die who pass like thee | G |
Enriching all their brother men | F |
As often on the edge of morn | H |
Lingers one star its fellows gone | I |
Thou shin'st alone and shalt shine on | J |
- | |
An age of ages yet unborn | H |
