Mastery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDBDEEFF| I would not have a god come in | A |
| To shield me suddenly from sin | A |
| And set my house of life to rights | B |
| Nor angels with bright burning wings | C |
| Ordering my earthly thoughts and things | C |
| Rather my own frail guttering lights | B |
| Wind blown and nearly beaten out | D |
| Rather the terror of the nights | B |
| And long sick groping after doubt | D |
| Rather be lost than let my soul | E |
| Slip vaguely from my own control | E |
| Of my own spirit let me be | F |
| In sole though feeble mastery | F |
