To A Friend Lost (tom Taylor) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBADEFFDE| When I remember friend whom lost I call | A |
| Because a man beloved is taken hence | B |
| The tender humour and the fire of sense | B |
| In your good eyes how full of heart for all | A |
| And chiefly for the weaker by the wall | A |
| You bore that lamp of sane benevolence | C |
| Then see I round you Death his shadows dense | B |
| Divide and at your feet his emblems fall | A |
| For surely are you one with the white host | D |
| Spirits whose memory is our vital air | E |
| Through the great love of Earth they had lo these | F |
| Like beams that throw the path on tossing seas | F |
| Can bid us feel we keep them in the ghost | D |
| Partakers of a strife they joyed to share | E |
