A Voice From Afar Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCADD EFFGHH IJJIKK

Weep not for meA
Be blithe as wont nor tinge with gloomB
The stream of love that circles homeC
Light hearts and freeA
Joy in the gifts Heaven s bounty lendsD
Nor miss my face dear friendsD
-
I still am nearE
Watching the smiles I prized on earthF
Your converse mild your blameless mirthF
Now too I hearG
Of whisper d sounds the tale completeH
Low prayers and musings sweetH
-
A sea beforeI
The Throne is spread its pure still glassJ
Pictures all earth scenes as they passJ
We on its shoreI
Share in the bosom of our restK
God's knowledge and are blestK

John Henry Newman
