Prison Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHIHJKGK| In the prison house of the dark | A |
| I lay with open eyes | B |
| And pale beyond the pale windows | C |
| I saw the dawn rise | B |
| From past the bounds of space | D |
| Where earthly vapours climb | E |
| There stirred the voice I shall not hear | F |
| On this side Time | E |
| There is one death for the body | G |
| And one death for the heart | H |
| And one prayer for the hope of the end | I |
| When some links part | H |
| Christ from uncounted leagues | J |
| Beyond the sun and moon | K |
| Strike with the sword of Thine own pity | G |
| Bring the dawn soon | K |
