Untitled 5 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF GHGHII| An exile captive severed from his home | A |
| Torn from the friends he loved in life's sweet spring | B |
| Heart broken toils while still his sad thoughts roam | A |
| Back to the past which now no joys can bring | B |
| Vainly he seeks compassion and relief | C |
| In human hearts around to cheer or soothe his grief | C |
| - | |
| As hard the steel so hard the flinty rock | D |
| Whose grating echoes jest but at his woe | E |
| The quivering iron yields but to the shock | D |
| While down his bosom's height the cold drops flow | E |
| His bleeding hands show many a sanguine spot | F |
| Though seen by human eyes by human hearts forgot | F |
| - | |
| There's not a sigh his spirit's grief hath sped | G |
| There's not a dew drop wrung by tyranny | H |
| Nor yet one scorching tear his soul hath shed | G |
| Nor bloody stain of silent agony | H |
| But God hath seen and hath recorded true | I |
| To render unto man according to his due | I |
