The True Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDCEE| I envy the tree tops that shake so high | A |
| In winds that fill them full of heavenly airs | B |
| I envy every little cloud that shares | B |
| With unseen angels evening in the sky | A |
| I envy most the youngest stars that lie | A |
| Sky nested and the loving heaven that bears | B |
| And night that makes strong worlds of them unawares | B |
| And all God's other beautiful and nigh | A |
| - | |
| Nay nay I envy not And these are dreams | C |
| Fancies and images of real heaven | D |
| My longings all my longing prayers are given | D |
| For that which is and not for that which seems | C |
| Draw me O Lord to thy true heaven above | E |
| The Heaven of thy Thought thy Rest thy Love | E |
