The Mission Bells Of Monterey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDED FGFGDED HIHIDED| O 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 |
