The Brownie Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEFGHIGIHHow disappeared he Ask the newt and toad | A |
Ask of his fellow men and they will tell | B |
How he was found cold as an icicle | C |
Under an arch of that forlorn abode | A |
Where he unpropped and by the gathering flood | D |
Of years hemmed round had dwelt prepared to try | E |
Privation's worst extremities and die | E |
With no one near save the omnipresent God | F |
Verily so to live was an awful choice | G |
A choice that wears the aspect of a doom | H |
But in the mould of mercy all is cast | I |
For Souls familiar with the eternal Voice | G |
And this forgotten Taper to the last | I |
Drove from itself we trust all frightful gloom | H |
