The Holy Scriptures Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCCEFFEGG| Oh that I knew how all thy lights combine | A |
| And the configurations of their glory | B |
| Seeing not only how each verse doth shine | A |
| But all the constellations of the story | B |
| This verse marks that and both do make a motion | C |
| Unto a third that ten leaves off doth lie | D |
| Then as dispersed herbs do watch a poition | C |
| These three make up some Christian's destiny | C |
| Such are thy secrets which my life makes good | E |
| And comments on thee for in ev'ry thing | F |
| Thy words do find me out and parallels bring | F |
| And in another make me understood | E |
| Stars are poor books and oftentimes do miss | G |
| This book of stars lights to eternal bliss | G |
