Rise, Oh My Soul, With Thy Desires To Heaven Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DCDCEE CFGFHI

Rise oh my Soul with thy desires to HeavenA
And with Divinest contemplation useB
Thy time where times eternity is givenA
And let vain thoughts no more thy thoughts abuseB
But down in darkness let them lieC
So live thy better let thy worse thoughts dieC
-
And thou my Soul inspir'd with holy flameD
View and review with most regardful eyeC
That holy Cross whence thy salvation cameD
On which thy Saviour and thy sin did dieC
For in that Sacred object is much pleasureE
And in that Saviour is my life my treasureE
-
To thee O Jesu I direct my eyeC
To thee my hands to thee my humble kneesF
To thee my heart shall offer sacrificeG
To thee my thoughts who my thoughts only seesF
To thee my self my self and all I giveH
To thee I die to thee I only liveI
