Unto What End, I Ask Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDACDA| Unto what end I ask unto what end | A |
| Is all this effort this unrest and toil | B |
| Work that avails not strife and mad turmoil | B |
| Ambitions vain that rack our hearts and rend | A |
| Did labor but avail did it defend | A |
| The soul from its despair who would recoil | B |
| From sweet endeavor then work that were oil | B |
| To still the storms that in the heart contend | A |
| But still to see all effort valueless | C |
| To toil in vain year after weary year | D |
| At Song beholding every other Art | A |
| Considered more than Song's high holiness | C |
| The difficult the beautiful and dear | D |
| Doth break my heart ah God doth break my heart | A |
