Even In The Grave Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADBBD EFGFEG| I laid my inventory at the hand | A |
| Of Death who in his gloomy arbour sate | B |
| And while he conned it sweet and desolate | C |
| I heard Love singing in that quiet land | A |
| He read the record even to the end | D |
| The heedless livelong injuries of Fate | B |
| The burden of foe the burden of love and hate | B |
| The wounds of foe the bitter wounds of friend | D |
| - | |
| All all he read ay even the indifference | E |
| The vain talk vainer silence hope and dream | F |
| He questioned me What seek'st thou then instead | G |
| I bowed my face in the pale evening gleam | F |
| Then gazed he on me with strange innocence | E |
| Even in the grave thou wilt have thyself he said | G |
