The Loadstone Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACCACCEternal God O Thou that only art | A |
The sacred fountain of eternal light | B |
And blessed loadstone of my better part | A |
O Thou my heart's desire my soul's delight | B |
Reflect upon my soul and touch my heart | A |
And then my heart shall prize no good above Thee | C |
And then my soul shall know Thee knowing love Thee | C |
And then my trembling thoughts shall never start | A |
From thy commands or swerve the least degree | C |
Or once presume to move but as they move in Thee | C |
