Song #8. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDEFEGHIEJEKEK LMNMI wonder if when done with | A |
Is all earth's pain and care | B |
When we at length are one with | A |
The Dead and with them bear | B |
Our part in the new life that | C |
Is now beyond our ken | D |
If we shall then remember | E |
Our loves or love again | D |
Will when the flesh is over | E |
And all its needs are gone | F |
The souls of loved and lover | E |
As in a dream love on | G |
Or will they live but mingle | H |
No more in the new sphere | I |
As they had done for ever | E |
With all that they were here | J |
Will father then and mother | E |
Or lover then and friend | K |
Be nothing to each other | E |
When here we make an end | K |
Of all that we have lived for | L |
Or shall our sprites above | M |
Indeed attain themselves in | N |
The entity of love | M |
