Dedication Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGHIFJK LMNONCM| I would be a torch unto your hand | A |
| A lamp upon your forehead Labor | B |
| In the wild darkness before the Dawn | C |
| That I shall never see | D |
| - | |
| We shall advance together my Beloved | E |
| Awaiting the mighty ushering | F |
| Together we shall make the last grand charge | G |
| And ride with gorgeous Death | H |
| With all her spangles on | I |
| And cymbals clashing | F |
| And you shall rush on exultant as I fall | J |
| Scattering a brief fire about your feet | K |
| - | |
| Let it be so | L |
| Better while life is quick | M |
| And every pain immense and joy supreme | N |
| And all I have and am | O |
| Flames upward to the dream | N |
| Than like a taper forgotten in the dawn | C |
| Burning out the wick | M |
