Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EEFEFF| As late I journey'd o'er the extensive plain | A |
| Where native Otter sports his scanty stream | B |
| Musing in torpid woe a Sister's pain | A |
| The glorious prospect woke me from the dream | B |
| - | |
| At every step it widen'd to my sight | C |
| Wood Meadow verdant Hill and dreary Steep | D |
| Following in quick succession of delight | C |
| Till all at once did my eye ravish'd sweep | D |
| - | |
| May this I cried my course through Life portray | E |
| New scenes of Wisdom may each step display | E |
| And Knowledge open as my days advance | F |
| Till what time Death shall pour the undarken'd ray | E |
| My eye shall dart thro' infinite expanse | F |
| And thought suspended lie in Rapture's blissful trance | F |
