To A Friend In Bereavement Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBADEFEFDNo comfort nay no comfort Yet would I | A |
In Sorrow's cause with Sorrow intercede | B |
Burst not the great heart this is all I plead | B |
Ah sentence it to suffer not to die | A |
'Comfort ' If Jesus wept at Bethany | C |
That doze and nap of Death how may we bleed | B |
Who watch the long sleep that is sleep indeed | B |
Pointing to Heaven I but remind you why | A |
On earth you still must mourn He who being bold | D |
For life to come is false to the past sweet | E |
Of Mortal life hath killed the world above | F |
For why to live again if not to meet | E |
And why to meet if not to meet in love | F |
And why in love if not in that dear love of old | D |
