Nirvana Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBD EEFGGF| Divest thyself O Soul of vain desire | A |
| Bid hope farewell dismiss all coward fears | B |
| Take leave of empty laughter emptier tears | C |
| And quench for ever quench the wasting fire | A |
| Wherein this heart as in a funeral pyre | A |
| Aye burns yet is consumed not Years on years | B |
| Moaning with memories in thy maddened ears | B |
| Let at thy word like refluent waves retire | D |
| - | |
| Enter thy soul's vast realm as Sovereign Lord | E |
| And like that angel with the flaming sword | E |
| Wave off life's clinging hands Then chains will fall | F |
| From the poor slave of self's hard tyranny | G |
| And Thou a ripple rounded by the sea | G |
| In rapture lost be lapped within the All | F |
