Rhyme Scheme: A BCDCDEFG HIJHKHLLA | |
- | |
A Word made Flesh is seldom | B |
And tremblingly partook | C |
Nor then perhaps reported | D |
But have I not mistook | C |
Each one of us has tasted | D |
With ecstasies of stealth | E |
The very food debated | F |
To our specific strength | G |
- | |
A Word that breathes distinctly | H |
Has not the power to die | I |
Cohesive as the Spirit | J |
It may expire if He | H |
Made Flesh and dwelt among us | K |
Could condescension be | H |
Like this consent of Language | L |
This loved Philology | L |
