At The Gate Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDBD EEEEFF| Naked I came into the world of pleasure | A |
| And naked come I to this house of pain | B |
| Here at the gate I lay down my life's treasure | A |
| My pride my garments and my name with men | C |
| The world and I henceforth shall be as twain | B |
| No sound of me shall pierce for good or ill | D |
| These walls of grief Nor shall I hear the vain | B |
| Laughter and tears of those who love me still | D |
| - | |
| Within what new life waits me Little ease | E |
| Cold lying hunger nights of wakefulness | E |
| Harsh orders given no voice to soothe or please | E |
| Poor thieves for friends for books rules meaningless | E |
| This is the grave nay Hell Yet Lord of Might | F |
| Still in Thy light my spirit shall see light | F |
