Sense And Spirit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFDDEF| The senses loving Earth or well or ill | A |
| Ravel yet more the riddle of our lot | B |
| The mind is in their trammels and lights not | B |
| By trimming fear bred tales nor does the will | A |
| To find in nature things which less may chill | A |
| An ardour that desires unknowing what | C |
| Till we conceive her living we go distraught | D |
| At best but circle windsails of a mill | A |
| Seeing she lives and of her joy of life | E |
| Creatively has given us blood and breath | F |
| For endless war and never wound unhealed | D |
| The gloomy Wherefore of our battle field | D |
| Solves in the Spirit wrought of her through strife | E |
| To read her own and trust her down to death | F |
