Rhyme Scheme: ABCCCCCCCDEFFEDIn the Hospital of St John at Bruges | A |
MYSTERY Catherine the bride of Christ | B |
She kneels and on her hand the holy Child | C |
Now sets the ring Her life is hushed and mild | C |
Laid in God's knowledge ever unenticed | C |
From God and in the end thus fitly priced | C |
Awe and the music that is near her wrought | C |
Of angels have possessed her eyes in thought | C |
Her utter joy is hers and hath sufficed | C |
There is a pause while Mary Virgin turns | D |
The leaf and reads With eyes on the spread book | E |
That damsel at her knees reads after her | F |
John whom He loved and John His harbinger | F |
Listen and watch Whereon soe'er thou look | E |
The light is starred in gems and the gold burns | D |
