A Reward Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAACDCDCCD| Because a steadfast flame of clear intent | A |
| Gave force and beauty to full actioned life | B |
| Because his way was one of firm ascent | A |
| Whose stepping stones were hewn of change and strife | B |
| Because as husband loveth noble wife | B |
| He loved fair Truth because the thing he meant | A |
| To do that thing he did nor paused nor bent | A |
| In face of poor and pale conclusions yea | C |
| Because of this how fares the Leader dead | D |
| What kind of mourners weep for him to day | C |
| What golden shroud is at his funeral spread | D |
| Upon his brow what leaves of laurel say | C |
| About his breast is tied a sackcloth grey | C |
| And knots of thorns deface his lordly head | D |
