Rhyme Scheme: ABC DBBE FGH IJK LMN OPBBHe truly loved the purple sun descending from the hills | A |
The ways through the woods the singing blackbird | B |
And the joys of green | C |
- | |
Sombre was his dwelling in the shadows of the tree | D |
And his face undefiled | B |
God a tender flame spoke to his heart | B |
Oh son of man | E |
- | |
Silently his step turned to the city in the evening | F |
A mysterious complaint fell from his lips | G |
I shall become a horseman | H |
- | |
But bush and beast did follow his ways | I |
To the pale people s house and garden at dusk | J |
And his murderer sought after him | K |
- | |
Spring and summer and oh so beautiful the fall | L |
Of the righteous His silent steps | M |
Passed by the dark rooms of the dreamers | N |
- | |
At night he and his star dwelled alone | O |
He saw the snow fall on bare branches | P |
And in the murky doorway the assassin s shadow | B |
Silvern sank the unborne s head | B |
