For An Annunciation, Early German Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDBAEFGHFG| The lilies stand before her like a screen | A |
| Through which upon this warm and solemn day | B |
| God surely hears For there she kneels to pray | B |
| Who wafts our prayers to God Mary the Queen | A |
| She was Faith's Present parting what had been | C |
| From what began with her and is for aye | D |
| On either hand God's twofold system lay | B |
| With meek bowed face a Virgin prayed between | A |
| So prays she and the Dove flies in to her | E |
| And she has turned At the low porch is one | F |
| Who looks as though deep awe made him to smile | G |
| Heavy with heat the plants yield shadow there | H |
| The loud flies cross each other in the sun | F |
| And the aisled pillars meet the poplar aisle | G |
