Analysis of And all things
All that so told-
Tell again, so bold,
All that known came-
Tell again, so come,
All that seen come-
All tell, not some,
Told, told, again, again-
So tell again to gain,
All that seen, oh darling!
Oh to see, all darling!
All that heard, oh darling!
So to hear all darling!
All so taken, oh darling!
So to take, all darling!
Certain places to action?
Certain spots, for virtue?
Certain places, for secrets?
And so certain, for nothing?
So return, so glad to me-
Oh return, so well to you,
So return, oh good to us-
Oh return so, in between,
All so got known, so known-
All so got filled, so filled,
All so made, so perfect, well-
So to pluck and take, so nil,
Made the structure, structure?
And all thrill, so filled?
All the luck so adorned?
And all things, all done?
