La Vierge Au Donateur Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDDEEEEE| Here by the ample river's argent sweep | A |
| Bosomed in tilth and vintage to her walls | B |
| A tower crowned Cybele in armoured sleep | A |
| The city lies fat plenty in her halls | B |
| With calm parochial spires that hold in fee | C |
| The friendly gables clustered at their base | D |
| And equipoised o'er tower and market place | D |
| The Gothic minister's winged immensity | E |
| And in that narrow burgh with equal mood | E |
| Two placid hearts to all life's good resigned | E |
| Might from the altar to the lych gate find | E |
| Long years of peace and dreamless plenitude | E |
