Experience Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBB CDCDDD EFEFFF AGAGGGThree memories hold us ever | A |
With longing and with pain | B |
Three memories Time has never | A |
Been able to restrain | B |
That in each life remain | B |
A part of heart and brain | B |
- | |
The first 's of that which taught us | C |
To follow Beauty still | D |
Who to the Fountain brought us | C |
Of ancient good and ill | D |
And bade us drink our fill | D |
At Life's wild running rill | D |
- | |
The second one that 's driven | E |
Of anguish and delight | F |
Holds that which showed us Heaven | E |
Through Love's triumphant might | F |
And deep beneath its height | F |
Hell sighing in the night | F |
- | |
The third none follows after | A |
Its form is veiled and dim | G |
Its eyes are tears and laughter | A |
That look beyond the rim | G |
Of earth and point to Him | G |
Who rules the Seraphim | G |
