The Descendents Of Cain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEFD GGH BIH| He did not lie the ghost so sad and thoughtful | A |
| That from a star took his name by a chance | B |
| When he had said Don t fear the Lord to us | C |
| Just try the fruit and be like Him immortal | A |
| - | |
| All routs for youths were opened in glow | D |
| And all forbidden works for older ones | E |
| And amber fruits for gaily girls at once | F |
| And the rhinoceros forever white as snow | D |
| - | |
| But why we lean bereft of any strength | G |
| And feel that someone has forgot all us at length | G |
| And grasp the dread of the old lure if only | H |
| - | |
| By an easy hand of someone by a chance | B |
| Two little sticks flag s poles leaves of grass | I |
| Will be united in the cross infirmly | H |
