Rhyme Scheme: A BBCCDD EFBBBB

From JobA
-
-
A spirit passed before me I beheldB
The face of immortality unveiledB
Deep sleep came down on every eye save mineC
And there it stood all formless but divineC
Along my bones the creeping flesh did quakeD
And as my damp hair stiffened thus it spakeD
-
Is man more just than God Is man more pureE
Than He who deems even Seraphs insecureF
Creatures of clay vain dwellers in the dustB
The moth survives you and are ye more justB
Things of a day you wither ere the nightB
Heedless and blind to Wisdom's wasted lightB

George Gordon Lord Byron
