I Will Not Despair Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCDCDD EFEFFGHIHH| I will not despair while thou rulest the storm | A |
| Though the red lightning stream o'er the cloud's sable breast | B |
| For I catch through the darkness bright gleams of thy form | A |
| And I know 'tis thy voice lulls the tempest to rest | B |
| The wild tempest to rest | B |
| Nor yet though the shadows of deepening night | C |
| Hang over my path like the pall of despair | D |
| For one star through the gloom sends its hallowed light | C |
| And I know 'tis thy love smiling tenderly there | D |
| Ah tenderly there | D |
| - | |
| I will not despair though the fountain that burst | E |
| For me in life's desert be wasted and dry | F |
| For thy love was the fountain that cheered me at first | E |
| And again to its life giving waters I fly | F |
| O Holiest fly | F |
| No I will not despair while thy hand points me on | G |
| Though flowerless and thorny the path where I roam | H |
| For a calm sunlight rests on the far hills beyond | I |
| And I know 'tis the radiance that streams from my home | H |
| Home beautiful home | H |
