Not Unto Endless Dark Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEEDNot unto endless dark do we go down | A |
Though all the wisdom of wide earth said yea | B |
Yet my fond heart would throb eternal nay | B |
Night prophet of morning wears her starry crown | A |
And jewels with hope her murkiest shades that frown | A |
Death's doubt is kernelled in each prayer we pray | B |
Eternity but night in some vast day | B |
Of God's far off red flame of love's renown | A |
Not unto endless dark We may not know | C |
The distant deeps to which our hopings go | C |
The tidal shores where ebbs our fleeting breath | D |
But over ill and dread and doubt's fell dart | E |
Sweet hope eternal holds the human heart | E |
And love laughs down the desolate dusks of death | D |
