To A World-reformer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJI Have sacrificed all thou sayest that man I might succor | A |
Vain the attempt my reward was persecution and hate | B |
Shall I tell thee my friend how I to humor him manage | C |
Trust the proverb I ne'er have been deceived by it yet | D |
Thou canst not sufficiently prize humanity's value | E |
Let it be coined in deed as it exists in thy breast | F |
E'en to the man whom thou chancest to meet in life's narrow pathway | G |
If he should ask it of thee hold forth a succoring hand | H |
But for rain and for dew for the general welfare of mortals | I |
Leave thou Heaven to care friend as before so e'en now | J |
Friedrich Schiller
