Sonnet. About Jesus. Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCDSo highest poets painters owe to Thee | A |
Their being and disciples none were there | B |
Hadst Thou not been Thou art the centre where | B |
The Truth did find an infinite form and she | A |
Left not the earth again but made it be | A |
One of her robing rooms where she doth wear | B |
All forms of revelation Artists bear | B |
Tapers in acolyte humility | A |
O Poet Painter soul of all thy art | C |
Went forth in making artists Pictures No | D |
But painters who in love should ever show | D |
To earnest men glad secrets from God's heart | C |
So in the desert grass and wild flowers start | C |
When through the sand the living waters go | D |
