To Garibaldi'with A Book Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADEEDDEWhen at Philippi he who would have freed | A |
Great Rome from tyrants for the season brief | B |
That lay 'twixt him and battle sought relief | B |
From painful thoughts he in a book did read | C |
That so the death of Portia might not breed | A |
Unmanful thoughts and cloud his mind with grief | B |
Brother of Brutus of high hearts the chief | B |
When thou at length receiv'st thy heavenly meed | A |
And I have found my hoping not in vain | D |
Tell me my book has wiled away one pang | E |
That out of some lone sacred memory sprang | E |
Or wrought an hour's forgetfulness of pain | D |
And I shall rise my heart brimful of gain | D |
And thank my God amid the golden clang | E |
