In Sleep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHIJKNOT drowsihood and dreams and mere idless | A |
Nor yet the blessedness of strength regained | B |
Alone are in what men call sleep The past | C |
My unsuspected soul my parents voice | A |
The generations of my forbears yea | D |
The very will of God himself are there | E |
And potent working so that many a doubt | F |
Is wiped away at daylight many a soil | G |
Washed cleanlier many a puzzle riddled plain | H |
Strong silent forces push my puny self | I |
Towards unguessed issues and the waking man | J |
Rises a Greatheart where a Slave lay down | K |
