Sonnet. About Jesus. Vi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEFF| And is not Earth thy living picture where | A |
| Thou utterest beauty simple and profound | B |
| In the same form by wondrous union bound | B |
| Where one may see the first step of the stair | A |
| And not the next for brooding vapours there | A |
| And God is well content the starry round | B |
| Should wake the infant's inarticulate sound | B |
| Or lofty song from bursting heart of prayer | A |
| And so all men of low or lofty mind | C |
| Who in their hearts hear thy unspoken word | D |
| Have lessons low or lofty to their kind | C |
| In these thy living shows of beauty Lord | E |
| While the child's heart that simply childlike is | F |
| Knows that the Father's face looks full in his | F |
