Provision Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDE| Above my head the great pine branches tower | A |
| Backwards and forwards each to the other bends | B |
| Beckoning the tempest cloud which hither wends | B |
| Like a slow laboured thought heavy with power | A |
| Hark to the patter of the coming shower | A |
| Let me be silent while the Almighty sends | B |
| His thunder word along but when it ends | B |
| I will arise and fashion from the hour | A |
| Words of stupendous import fit to guard | C |
| High thoughts and purposes which I may wave | D |
| When the temptation cometh close and hard | C |
| Like fiery brands betwixt me and the grave | D |
| Of meaner things to which I am a slave | D |
| If evermore I keep not watch and ward | E |
