Edmund Clarence Stedman Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHDJKJ

Oh quick to feel the lightest touchA
Of beauty or of truthB
Rich in the thoughtfulness of ageC
The hopefulness of youthB
The courage of the gentle heartD
The wisdom of the pureE
The strength of finely tempered soulsF
To labour and endureE
-
The blue of springtime in your eyesG
Was never quenched by painH
And winter brought your head the crownI
Of snow without a stainH
The poet's mind the prince's heartD
You kept until the endJ
Nor ever faltered in your workK
Nor ever failed a friendJ
