The Answer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEBFD GHBIJKLI| When I go back to earth | A |
| And all my joyous body | B |
| Puts off the red and white | C |
| That once had been so proud | D |
| If men should pass above | E |
| With false and feeble pity | B |
| My dust will find a voice | F |
| To answer them aloud | D |
| - | |
| Be still I am content | G |
| Take back your poor compassion | H |
| Joy was a flame in me | B |
| Too steady to destroy | I |
| Lithe as a bending reed | J |
| Loving the storm that sways her | K |
| I found more joy in sorrow | L |
| Than you could find in joy | I |
