Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDE FGFGFHFH FIFIFFFFSpirit girl to whom 'twas given | A |
To revisit scenes of pain | B |
From the hell I thought was Heaven | A |
You have lifted me again | C |
Through the world that I inherit | D |
Where I loved her ere she died | E |
I am walking with the spirit | D |
Of a dead girl by my side | E |
- | |
Through my old possessions only | F |
For a very little while | G |
And they say that I am lonely | F |
And they pity but I smile | G |
For the brighter side has won me | F |
By the calmness that it brings | H |
And the peace that is upon me | F |
Does not come of earthly things | H |
- | |
Spirit girl the good is in me | F |
But the flesh you know is weak | I |
And with no pure soul to win me | F |
I might miss the path I seek | I |
Lead me by the love you bore me | F |
When you trod the earth with me | F |
Till the light is clear before me | F |
And my spirit too is free | F |
