To Cardinal Manning Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECEDI wakeful for the skylark voice in men | A |
Or straining for the angel of the light | B |
Rebuked am I by hungry ear and sight | B |
When I behold one lamp that through our fen | A |
Goes hourly where most noisome hear again | A |
A tongue that loathsomeness will not affright | B |
From speaking to the soul of us forthright | B |
What things our craven senses keep from ken | A |
This is the doing of the Christ the way | C |
He went on earth the service above guile | D |
To prop a tyrant creed it sings it shines | E |
Cries to the Mammonites Allay allay | C |
Such misery as by these present signs | E |
Brings vengeance down nor them who rouse revile | D |
