Lament Viii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFF GG| Thou hast made all the house an empty thing | A |
| Dear Ursula by this thy vanishing | A |
| Though we are here 'tis yet a vacant place | B |
| One little soul had filled so great a space | B |
| For thou didst sing thy joyousness to all | C |
| Running through every nook of house and hall | C |
| Thou wouldst not have thy mother grieve nor let | D |
| Thy father with too solemn thinking fret | D |
| His head but thou must kiss them daughter mine | E |
| And all with that entrancing laugh of thine | E |
| Now on the house has fallen a dumb blight | F |
| Thou wilt not come with archness and delight | F |
| - | |
| But every corner lodges lurking grief | G |
| And all in vain the heart would seek relief | G |
