Suicide's Stone Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDAE FGHIJK LAMJNO| Peace is the heir of dead desire | A |
| Whether abundance killed the cormorant | B |
| In a happy hour or sleep or death | C |
| Drowned him deep in dreamy waters | D |
| Peace is the ashes of that fire | A |
| The heir of that king the inn of that journey | E |
| - | |
| This last and best and goal we dead | F |
| Hold it so tight you are envious of us | G |
| And fear under sunk lids contempt | H |
| Death day greetings are the sweetest | I |
| Let trumpets roar when a man dies | J |
| And rockets fly up he has found his fortune | K |
| - | |
| Yet hungering long and pitiably | L |
| That way you shall not reach a finger | A |
| To pluck it unripe and before dark | M |
| Creep to cover life broke ten whipstocks | J |
| Over my back broke faith stole hope | N |
| Before I denounced the covenant of courage | O |
