Life-weary Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| O Thou that walkest with nigh hopeless feet | A |
| Past the one harbour built for thee and thine | B |
| Doth no stray odour from its table greet | A |
| No truant beam from fire or candle shine | B |
| - | |
| At his wide door the host doth stand and call | C |
| At every lattice gracious forms invite | D |
| Thou seest but a dull gray solid wall | C |
| In forest sullen with the things of night | D |
| - | |
| Thou cravest rest and Rest for thee doth crave | E |
| The white sheet folded down white robe apart | F |
| Shame Faithless No I do not mean the grave | E |
| I mean Love's very house and hearth and heart | F |
