I Was Sick And In Prison Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFGEC| Thou hast not left the rough barked tree to grow | A |
| Without a mate upon the river's bank | B |
| Nor dost Thou on one flower the rain bestow | A |
| But many a cup the glittering drops has drank | B |
| The bird must sing to one who sings again | C |
| Else would her note less welcome be to hear | D |
| Nor hast Thou bid thy word descend in vain | E |
| But soon some answering voice shall reach my ear | D |
| Then shall the brotherhood of peace begin | F |
| And the new song be raised that never dies | G |
| That shall the soul from death and darkness win | F |
| And burst the prison where the captive lies | G |
| And one by one new born shall join the strain | E |
| Till earth restores her sons to heaven again | C |
