Surrender Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCA DEEFD GHHIG JKKLM NIION PQQRP BIISB| Pale was the early day | A |
| Fog white the winter air | B |
| When up a hill side bare | B |
| Roughened with rimy grass | C |
| I took my thoughtless way | A |
| - | |
| As my feet strayed uphill | D |
| I felt the blank cloud float | E |
| Past and bedew my coat | E |
| At unawares I found | F |
| A gate and there stood still | D |
| - | |
| And on a sudden behold | G |
| Above the virgin blue | H |
| Blue bathing my heart through | H |
| A shock of blueness bright | I |
| Pierced with an eye of gold | G |
| - | |
| And there uprising tall | J |
| From mist to warm sapphire | K |
| Straight up like windless fire | K |
| A poplar stood alone | L |
| White dream fresh virginal | M |
| - | |
| Rime robed her pure as snow | N |
| O white was never white | I |
| As this which thrilled my sight | I |
| I stood still in the mist | O |
| Dazzled entranced aglow | N |
| - | |
| For in a dazzling drift | P |
| The rime rained down it gleamed | Q |
| It shivered soft it streamed | Q |
| Radiant as tears of joy | R |
| When the heart gives all its gift | P |
| - | |
| Alone in the still still air | B |
| To the divine lone height | I |
| Of blue this poplar white | I |
| Like virgin ecstasy | S |
| Stript all her beauty bare | B |
