That Holy Thing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| They all were looking for a king | A |
| To slay their foes and lift them high | B |
| Thou cam'st a little baby thing | A |
| That made a woman cry | B |
| - | |
| O son of man to right my lot | C |
| Nought but thy presence can avail | D |
| Yet on the road thy wheels are not | C |
| Nor on the sea thy sail | D |
| - | |
| My fancied ways why shouldst thou heed | E |
| Thou com'st down thine own secret stair | F |
| Com'st down to answer all my need | E |
| Yea every bygone prayer | F |
