Despondency Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBDCCEFCEF| Not all the bravery that day puts on | A |
| Of gold and azure ardent or austere | B |
| Shall ease my soul of sorrow grown more dear | B |
| Than all the joy that heavenly hope may don | A |
| Far up the skies the rumor of the dawn | C |
| May run and eve like some wild torch appear | B |
| These shall not change the darkness gathered here | D |
| Of thought that rusts like an old sword undrawn | C |
| Oh for a place deep sunken from the sun | C |
| A wildwood cave of primitive rocks and moss | E |
| Where Sleep and Silence breast to married breast | F |
| Lie with their child night eyed Oblivion | C |
| Where freed from all the trouble of my cross | E |
| I might forget I might forget and rest | F |
