Our Daily Bread Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| Give us this day our daily bread O prayer | A |
| By Jesus taught thou hast become a cry | B |
| For starveling mouths in Famine's ghastly lair | A |
| A beggar's plaint when Dives passes by | B |
| - | |
| We have forsook the Temple of the Soul | C |
| To carp with sordid tradesmen face to face | D |
| No more we hear the Sinaian thunders roll | C |
| Or Jesus preaching in the market place | D |
| - | |
| The money changers flaunt their silks and gold | E |
| Within the Temple gates they ply their trade | F |
| Forgetful of the Voice that cried of old | E |
| A den of thieves my Father's house is made | F |
