My Theme Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDADCA| Of me and of my theme think what thou wilt | A |
| The song of gladness one straight bolt can check | B |
| But I have never stood at Fortune's beck | B |
| Were she and her light crew to run atilt | A |
| At my poor holding little would be spilt | A |
| Small were the praise for singing o'er that wreck | B |
| Who courts her dooms to strife his bended neck | B |
| He grasps a blade not always by the hilt | A |
| Nathless she strikes at random can be fell | C |
| With other than those votaries she deals | D |
| The black or brilliant from her thunder rift | A |
| I say but that this love of Earth reveals | D |
| A soul beside our own to quicken quell | C |
| Irradiate and through ruinous floods uplift | A |
