The Clod And The Pebble Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEFE AGA

'Love seeketh not itself to pleaseA
Nor for itself hath any careB
But for another gives its easeA
And builds a heaven in hell's despair 'C
-
So sung a little clod of clayD
Trodden with the cattle's feetE
But a pebble of the brookF
Warbled out these meters meetE
-
'Love seeketh only Self to pleaseA
To bind another to its delightG
Joys in another's loss of easeA
And builds a hell in heaven's despite '-

William Blake
