In Sleep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFGHIJK| NOT 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 |
