Hereafter. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGH| Ah when this world and I have shaken hands | A |
| And all the frowns of this sad life got through | B |
| When from pale Care and Sorrow's dismal lands | A |
| I turn a welcome and a wish'd adieu | B |
| How blest and happy to eternal day | C |
| To endless happiness without a pain | D |
| Will my poor weary spirit sail away | C |
| That long long look'd for better place to gain | D |
| How sweet the scenes will open on her eye | E |
| Where no more troubles no more cares annoy | F |
| All the sharp troubles of this life torn by | E |
| And safely moor'd in heaven's eternal joy | F |
| Sweet will it seem to Fate's oppressed worm | G |
| As trembling Sunbeams creeping from the storm | H |
