On The Mystery Of The Incarnation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKL| It's when we face for a moment | A |
| the worst our kind can do and shudder to know | B |
| the taint in our own selves that awe | C |
| cracks the mind's shell and enters the heart | D |
| not to a flower not to a dolphin | E |
| to no innocent form | F |
| but to this creature vainly sure | G |
| it and no other is god like God | H |
| out of compassion for our ugly | I |
| failure to evolve entrusts | J |
| as guest as brother | K |
| the Word | L |
