Blind Sorrow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB FBFBMy life is drear walking I labour sore | A |
The heart in me is heavy as a stone | B |
And of my sorrows this the icy core | A |
Life is so wide and I am all alone | B |
- | |
Thou did'st walk so with heaven born eyes down bent | C |
Upon the earth's gold rosy radiant clay | D |
That thou had'st seen no star in all God's tent | C |
Had not thy tears made pools first on the way | D |
- | |
Ah little knowest thou the tender care | E |
In a love plenteous cloak around thee thrown | B |
Full many a dim seen saving mountain stair | E |
Toiling thou climb'st but not one step alone | B |
- | |
Lift but thy languid head and see thy guide | F |
Let thy steps go in his nor choose thine own | B |
Then soon wilt thou thine eyes with wonder wide | F |
Cry Now I know I never was alone | B |
