Disillusion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBAB CDCDCD EEE EEE BEBEBE FBFBFB GCDCDC| For some forty years and over | A |
| Poets had with me their way | B |
| And they made me think that Sorrow | C |
| Owned the Night and owned the Day | B |
| And the corpse beneath the clover | A |
| Had a hopeful word to say | B |
| - | |
| And they made me think that Sorrow | C |
| Was the Shadow in the Sun | D |
| And they made me think To morrow | C |
| Was a gift to everyone | D |
| And the days I used to borrow | C |
| Till my credit now is done | D |
| - | |
| And they told me softly sweetly | E |
| That when Life had lost its glee | E |
| I could be consoled completely | E |
| - | |
| By the Forest or the Sea | E |
| And they wrote their rhymes so neatly | E |
| That they quite deluded me | E |
| - | |
| But when Sorrow is at sorest | B |
| And the heart weeps silently | E |
| Is there healing in the Forest | B |
| Is there solace in the Sea | E |
| And the God whom thou adorest | B |
| Has He any help for thee | E |
| - | |
| Does it soothe the spent man dying | F |
| That the stars are shining bright | B |
| O'er the field where he is lying | F |
| And the moon with all her light | B |
| Does she help his bare soul flying | F |
| Through the vast and lonely Night | B |
| - | |
| Give to me the grasp of true man | G |
| Though his state be high or low | C |
| Give to me the kiss of woman | D |
| Let your Seas and Forests go | C |
| There is nothing but the human | D |
| Touch can heal the human woe | C |
