Sonnet. About Jesus. Xiv. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDDEEDD| All divine artists humble filial | A |
| Turn therefore unto Thee the poet's sun | B |
| First born of God's creation only done | B |
| When from Thee centre form the veil did fall | C |
| And Thou symbol of all heart coronal | C |
| The highest Life with noblest Form made one | B |
| To do thy Father's bidding hadst begun | B |
| The living germ in this strange planet ball | C |
| Even as thy form in mind of striving saint | D |
| So as the one Ideal beyond taint | D |
| Thy radiance unto all some shade doth yield | E |
| In every splendour shadowy revealed | E |
| But when by word or hand Thee one would paint | D |
| Power falls down straightway speechless dim eyed faint | D |
