The Two Sayings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBBBCBCBC| Two savings of the Holy Scriptures beat | A |
| Like pulses in the Church's brow and breast | B |
| And by them we find rest in our unrest | B |
| And heart deep in salt tears do yet entreat | B |
| God's fellowship as if on heavenly seat | B |
| The first is JESUS WEPT whereon is prest | B |
| Full many a sobbing face that drops its best | B |
| And sweetest waters on the record sweet | B |
| And one is where the Christ denied and scorned | B |
| LOOKED UPON PETER Oh to render plain | C |
| By help of having loved a little and mourned | B |
| That look of sovran love and sovran pain | C |
| Which HE who could not sin yet suffered turned | B |
| On him who could reject but not sustain | C |
