Religious Isolation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEDFGGChildren as such forgive them have I known | A |
Ever in their own eager pastime bent | B |
To make the incurious bystander intent | B |
On his own swarming thoughts an interest own | A |
Too fearful or too fond to play alone | A |
Do thou whom light in thine own inmost soul | C |
Not less thy boast illuminates control | C |
Wishes unworthy of a man full grown | A |
What though the holy secret which moulds thee | D |
Moulds not the solid Earth though never Winds | E |
Have whisper'd it to the complaining Sea | D |
Nature's great law and law of all men's minds | F |
To its own impulse every creature stirs | G |
Live by thy light and Earth will live by hers | G |
