The New Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBBCCDECDEAA| Perhaps they laughed at Dante in his youth | A |
| Told him that truth | A |
| Had unappealably been said | B |
| In the great masterpieces of the dead | B |
| Perhaps he listened and but bowed his head | B |
| In acquiescent honour while his heart | C |
| Held natal tidings that a new life is the part | C |
| Of every man that's born | D |
| A new life never lived before | E |
| And a new expectant art | C |
| It is the variations of the morn | D |
| That are forever more and more | E |
| The single dawning of the single truth | A |
| So answers Dante to the heart of youth | A |
