Sonnet. About Jesus. Viii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDEFG

Thou wouldst have led us through the twilight landA
Where spirit shows by form form is refinedB
Away to spirit by transfiguring mindB
Till they are one and in the morn we standA
Treading thy footsteps children hand in handA
With sense divinely growing till combinedB
We heard the music of the planets windB
In harmony with billows on the strandA
Till one with Earth and all God's utteranceC
We hardly knew whether the sun outspakeD
Or a glad sunshine from our spirits brakeD
Whether we think or windy leaflets danceE
Alas O Poet Leader for this goodF
Thou wert God's tragedy writ in tears and bloodG
