Earth's Secret Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDENot solitarily in fields we find | A |
Earth's secret open though one page is there | B |
Her plainest such as children spell and share | B |
With bird and beast raised letters for the blind | A |
Not where the troubled passions toss the mind | A |
In turbid cities can the key be bare | B |
It hangs for those who hither thither fare | B |
Close interthreading nature with our kind | A |
They hearing History speak of what men were | C |
And have become are wise The gain is great | D |
In vision and solidity it lives | E |
Yet at a thought of life apart from her | C |
Solidity and vision lose their state | D |
For Earth that gives the milk the spirit gives | E |
