Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFEGHIJIKKWhen first I ended then I first began | A |
Then more I travelled further from my rest | B |
Where most I lost there most of all I won | C |
Pin d with hunger rising from a feast | D |
Methinks I fly yet want I legs to go | E |
Wise in conceit in act a very sot | F |
Ravished with joy amidst a hell of woe | E |
What most I seem that surest am I not | G |
I build my hopes a world above the sky | H |
Yet with the mole I creep into the earth | I |
In plenty I am starved with penury | J |
And yet I surfeit in the greatest dearth | I |
I have I want despair and yet desire | K |
Burned in a sea of ice and drowned amidst a fire | K |
