Where There Is No Vision The People Perish Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCEED| Spare us Lord that last that dreariest ill | A |
| Thy wrath's grim thunder and thy lightning scorn | B |
| For our iniquity that we have worn | B |
| Soft as a grace these if it be thy will | A |
| But not unsouled darkness Not the chill | A |
| Dead air in which men move a while forlorn | B |
| And swiftly fail Oh break us make us mourn | B |
| With tears of blood but let us see thee still | A |
| - | |
| For we have visioned thee Once long ago | C |
| O'er sea and wilderness a cloud of fire | D |
| Thou led'st us forth 'mid many a shame and woe | C |
| We still have dreamed apocalypse at last | E |
| Ah go not out thou Flame of all the past | E |
| Burn thou bright Ardor burn thou great Desire | D |
