The Hope Of The Resurrection Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFGHHII| Though I have watched so many mourners weep | A |
| O'er the real dead in dull earth laid asleep | A |
| Those dead seemed but the shadows of my days | B |
| That passed and left me in the sun's bright rays | B |
| Now though you go on smiling in the sun | C |
| Our love is slain and love and you were one | C |
| You are the first you I have known so long | D |
| Whose death was deadly a tremendous wrong | D |
| Therefore I seek the faith that sets it right | E |
| Amid the lilies and the candle light | E |
| I think on Heaven for in that air so dear | F |
| We two may meet confused and parted here | G |
| Ah when man's dearest dies 'tis then he goes | H |
| To that old balm that heals the centuries' woes | H |
| Then Christ's wild cry in all the streets is rife | I |
| I am the Resurrection and the Life | I |
