Futurity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBA BDBEBB| What of our life when this frail flesh lies low | A |
| A withered clod and the free soul has burst | B |
| Through the world fetters Not of souls accursed | B |
| With cherished lusts that mar them those who sow | C |
| Evil and reap the harvest and who bow | C |
| At Mammon's golden shrine but those who thirst | B |
| For Truth and see not spirits deep immersed | B |
| In doubt and trouble hearts that fain would know | A |
| - | |
| The soul is satisfied The spirit trained | B |
| For the divine because the beautiful | D |
| Now with the body gone free and unstained | B |
| Doubts swept away like clouds of scattering wool | E |
| Before a blast e'er Heaven's pure paths are trod | B |
| Is perfected to understand its God | B |
