The Mission Bells Of Monterey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDED FGFGDED HIHIDEDO bells that rang O bells that sang | A |
Above the martyrs' wilderness | B |
Till from that reddened coast line sprang | A |
The Gospel seed to cheer and bless | C |
What are your garnered sheaves to day | D |
O Mission bells Eleison bells | E |
O Mission bells of Monterey | D |
- | |
O bells that crash O bells that clash | F |
Above the chimney crowded plain | G |
On wall and tower your voices dash | F |
But never with the old refrain | G |
In mart and temple gone astray | D |
Ye dangle bells Ye jangle bells | E |
Ye wrangle bells of Monterey | D |
- | |
O bells that die so far so nigh | H |
Come back once more across the sea | I |
Not with the zealot's furious cry | H |
Not with the creed's austerity | I |
Come with His love alone to stay | D |
O Mission bells Eleison bells | E |
O Mission bells of Monterey | D |
