Vii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCDThe face of all the world is changed I think | A |
Since first I heard the footsteps of thy soul | B |
Move still oh still beside me as they stole | B |
Betwixt me and the dreadful outer brink | A |
Of obvious death where I who thought to sink | A |
Was caught up into love and taught the whole | B |
Of life in a new rhythm The cup of dole | B |
God gave for baptism I am fain to drink | A |
And praise its sweetness Sweet with thee anear | C |
The names of country heaven are changed away | D |
For where thou art or shalt be there or here | C |
And this this lute and song loved yesterday | D |
The singing angels know are only dear | C |
Because thy name moves right in what they say | D |
