Immortality Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CAD CAD| Foil'd by our fellow men depress'd outworn | A |
| We leave the brutal world to take its way | B |
| And Patience in another life we say | B |
| The world shall be thrust down and we up borne | A |
| - | |
| And will not then the immortal armies scorn | A |
| The world's poor routed leavings or will they | B |
| Who fail'd under the heat of this life's day | B |
| Support the fervours of the heavenly morn | A |
| - | |
| No no the energy of life may be | C |
| Kept on after the grave but not begun | A |
| And he who flagg'd not in the earthly strife | D |
| - | |
| From strength to strength advancing only he | C |
| His soul well knit and all his battles won | A |
| Mounts and that hardly to eternal life | D |
