Pain And Time Strive Not Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAC DEEDC FGGFC HAAHC

What part of the dread eternityA
Are those strange minutes that I gainB
Mazed with the doubt of love and painB
When I thy delicate face may seeA
A little while before farewellC
-
What share of the world s yearning tideD
That flash when new day bare and whiteE
Blots out my half dream s faint delightE
And there is nothing by my sideD
And well remembered is farewellC
-
What drop in the grey flood of tearsF
That time when the long day toiled throughG
Worn out shows nought for me to doG
And nothing worth my labour bearsF
The longing of that last farewellC
-
What pity from the heavens aboveH
What heed from out eternityA
What word from the swift world for meA
Speak heed and pity O tender loveH
Who knew st the days before farewellC
