The New Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGTHE hands must touch and handle many things | A |
The eyes long waste their glances all in vain | B |
The feet course still in idle mazy rings | A |
E'er man himself the lost shall back regain | B |
The hand that ever moves the eyes that see | C |
While day holds out his shining lamp on high | D |
And strait as flies the honey seeking bee | C |
Direct the feet to unseen flowers they spy | D |
These when they come the man revealed from heaven | E |
Shall labor all the day in quiet rest | F |
And find at eve the covert duly given | E |
Where with the bird they find sweet sleep and rest | F |
That shall their wasted strength to health restore | G |
And bid them seek the morn the hills and fields once more | G |
