Despair Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDDC| Thy wings swoop darkening round my soul Despair | A |
| And on my brain thy shadow seems to brood | B |
| And hem me round with stifling solitude | B |
| With chasms of vacuous bloom which are thy lair | A |
| No light of human joy no song or prayer | A |
| Breaks ever on this chaos all imbrued | B |
| With heart's blood trickling from the multitude | B |
| Of sweet hopes slain or agonising there | A |
| - | |
| Lo wilt thou yield thyself to grief and roll | C |
| Vanquished from thy high seat imperial brain | D |
| And abdicating turbulent life's control | C |
| Be dragged a captive bound in sorrow's chain | D |
| Nay though my heart is breaking with its pain | D |
| No pain on earth has power to crush my soul | C |
