Shadow And Shine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACAC DEDEACAC AAAAFCFC| They will find in this life who are grieved with its gladness | A |
| No songs for the heart and no hopes for the soul | B |
| But will faint in the glooms where the dirges of sadness | A |
| In tremulous murmurs of wretchedness roll | B |
| For the sweets of this earth never lavish their kisses | A |
| Where lives in the valleys of rapture repine | C |
| In the tortures they mourn who denounce all the blisses | A |
| They weep in the shadow that rail at the shine | C |
| - | |
| In the fields that are fair with the blooms of the clover | D |
| No garlands are grown for the arbors of shade | E |
| Where the woes of the wood in their darkness hang over | D |
| The grasses that wave with the winds of the glade | E |
| From the chimes of the breezes there echo no measures | A |
| That gladden the gale with a music divine | C |
| In the troubles they languish who shrink from the pleasures | A |
| They weep in the shadow that rail at the shine | C |
| - | |
| Ah the world is abounding with wonderful glories | A |
| And wild are the warbles that sweeten its ways | A |
| While the songs of the land sing their beautiful stories | A |
| And scatter their melodies over the days | A |
| There are smiles there are joys never mingled with sorrow | F |
| O man in return for the tears that are thine | C |
| And the soul never sobs that has hopes for the morrow | F |
| Nor weeps in the shadow nor rails at the shine | C |
