Russian Cathedral Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDE FGFGFG

Bow down my soul in worship very lowA
And in the holy silences be lostB
Bow down before the marble man of woeA
Bow down before the singing angel hostC
What jewelled glory fills my spirit's eyeD
What golden grandeur moves the depths of meE
The soaring arches lift me up on highD
Taking my breath with their rare symmetryE
-
Bow down my soul and let the wondrous lightF
Of beauty bathe thee from her lofty throneG
Bow down before the wonder of man's mightF
Bow down in worship humble and aloneG
Bow lowly down before the sacred sightF
Of man's divinity alive in stoneG

Claude Mckay
