Presence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GG| When she had left us but a little while | A |
| I still could hear the ringing of her voice | B |
| Still see athwart the dusk her shy half smile | A |
| And that sweet trust wherein I most rejoice | B |
| - | |
| Then in her self same tones I heard Go thou | C |
| Set to that work appointed thee to do | D |
| Remembering I am with thee here and now | C |
| Watchful as ever See my eyes shine true | D |
| - | |
| I lookt and saw the concourse of clear stars | E |
| Steadfast of limpid candour and could discover | F |
| Her soul look on me thro' the prison bars | E |
| Which slunk like sin from such an honest Lover | F |
| - | |
| And thro' the vigil pauses of that night | G |
| She beam'd on me and my soul felt her light | G |
