Down To The Mothers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEDFGGEHBIJ A

Linger no more my beloved by abbey and cell and cathedralA
Mourn not for holy ones mourning of old them who knew not the FatherB
Weeping with fast and scourge when the bridegroom was taken from themC
Drop back awhile through the years to the warm rich youth of the nationsD
Childlike in virtue and faith though childlike in passion and pleasureB
Childlike still and still near to their God while the day spring of EdenE
Lingered in rose red rays on the peaks of Ionian mountainsD
Down to the mothers as Faust went I go to the roots of our manhoodF
Mothers of us in our cradles of us once more in our gloryG
New born body and soul in the great pure world which shall beG
In the renewing of all things when man shall return to his EdenE
Conquering evil and death and shame and the slander of conscienceH
Free in the sunshine of Godhead and fearlessly smile on his FatherB
Down to the mothers I go yet with thee still be with me thou purestI
Lead me thy hand in my hand and the dayspring of God go before usJ
