Saints Have Adored The Lofty Soul Of You Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFEF

Saints have adored the lofty soul of youA
Poets have whitened at your high renownB
We stand among the many millions whoA
Do hourly wait to pass your pathway downB
You so familiar once were strange we triedC
To live as of your presence unawareD
But now in every road on every sideC
We see your straight and steadfast signpost thereD
-
I think it like that signpost in my landE
Hoary and tall which pointed me to goF
Upward into the hills on the right handE
Where the mists swim and the winds shriek and blowF
A homeless land and friendless but a landE
I did not know and that I wished to knowF
