By The Side Of The Grave Some Years After Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HIHI| LONG time his pulse hath ceased to beat | A |
| But benefits his gift we trace | B |
| Expressed in every eye we meet | A |
| Round this dear Vale his native place | B |
| - | |
| To stately Hall and Cottage rude | C |
| Flowed from his life what still they hold | D |
| Light pleasures every day renewed | C |
| And blessings half a century old | D |
| - | |
| Oh true of heart of spirit gay | E |
| Thy faults where not already gone | F |
| From memory prolong their stay | E |
| For charity's sweet sake alone | G |
| - | |
| Such solace find we for our loss | H |
| And what beyond this thought we crave | I |
| Comes in the promise from the Cross | H |
| Shining upon thy happy grave | I |
