The Undiscovered Country Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEFDEFForever am I conscious moving here | A |
That should I step a little space aside | B |
I pass the boundary of some glorified | B |
Invisible domain it lies so near | C |
Yet nothing know we of that dim frontier | C |
Which each must cross whatever fate betide | B |
To reach the heavenly cities where abide | B |
Thus Sorrow whispers those that were most dear | C |
Now all transfigured in celestial light | D |
Shall we indeed behold them thine and mine | E |
Whose going hence made black the noonday sun | F |
Strange is it that across the narrow night | D |
They fling us not some token or make sign | E |
That all beyond is not Oblivion | F |
