Mary Magdalene And The Other Mary: A Song For All Maries Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BAB ABAB

Our Master lies asleep and is at restA
His Heart has ceased to bleed His Eye to weepB
The sun ashamed has dropt down in the westA
Our Master lies asleepB
-
Now we are they who weep and trembling keepB
Vigil with wrung heart in a sighing breastA
While slow time creeps and slow the shadows creepB
-
Renew Thy youth as eagle from the nestA
O Master who hast sown arise to reapB
No cock crow yet no flush on eastern crestA
Our Master lies asleepB
