Deep In The Quiet Wood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNAre you bowed down in heart | A |
Do you but hear the clashing discords and the din of life | B |
Then come away come to the peaceful wood | C |
Here bathe your soul in silence Listen Now | D |
From out the palpitating solitude | E |
Do you not catch yet faint elusive strains | F |
They are above around within you everywhere | G |
Silently listen Clear and still more clear they come | H |
They bubble up in rippling notes and swell in singing tones | I |
Now let your soul run the whole gamut of the wondrous scale | J |
Until responsive to the tonic chord | K |
It touches the diapason of God's grand cathedral organ | L |
Filling earth for you with heavenly peace | M |
And holy harmonies | N |
