Thro' Grief And Thro' Danger Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEECC| Thro' grief and thro' danger thy smile hath cheer'd my way | A |
| Till hope seem'd to bud from each thorn that round me lay | A |
| The darker our fortune the brighter our pure love burned | B |
| Till shame into glory till fear into zeal was turned | B |
| Oh slave as I was in thy arms my spirit felt free | C |
| And bless'd e'en the sorrows that made me more dear to thee | C |
| - | |
| Thy rival was honoured while thou wert wronged and scorned | D |
| Thy crown was of briers while gold her brows adorned | D |
| She woo'd me to temples while thou lay'st hid in caves | E |
| Her friends were all masters while thine alas were slaves | E |
| Yet cold in the earth at thy feet I would rather be | C |
| Than wed what I lov'd not or turn one thought from thee | C |
