Sin (i) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCBBBBBDD| Lord with what care hast Thou begirt us round | A |
| Parents first season us then schoolmasters | B |
| Deliver us to laws they send us bound | A |
| To rules of reason holy messengers | B |
| Pulpits and Sundays sorrow dogging sin | C |
| Afflictions sorted anguish of all sizes | B |
| Fine nets and stratagems to catch us in | C |
| Bibles laid open millions of surprises | B |
| Blessings beforehand ties of gratefulness | B |
| The sound of glory ringing in our ears | B |
| Without our shame within our consciences | B |
| Angels and grace eternal hopes and fears | B |
| Yet all these fences and their whole array | D |
| One cunning bosom sin blows quite away | D |
