The Human Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEDEDE| Within each living man there doth reside | A |
| In some unrifled chamber of the heart | B |
| A hidden treasure wayward as thou art | B |
| I love thee man and bind thee to my side | A |
| By that sweet act I purify my pride | A |
| And hasten onward willing even to part | B |
| With pleasant graces though thy hue is swart | C |
| I bear thee company thou art my guide | A |
| Even in thy sinning wise beyond thy ken | D |
| To thee a subtle debt my soul is owing | E |
| I take an impulse from the worst of men | D |
| That lends a wing unto my onward going | E |
| Then let me pay them gladly back again | D |
| With prayer and love from Faith and Duty flowing | E |
