Psalm I. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBBBCCBBDDEEBBFFGG BBHI| The man is blest whose feet not tread | A |
| By wicked counsailes led | A |
| Nor stands in that perverted way | B |
| In which the Sinners stray | B |
| Nor joynes himselfe unto the chaire | B |
| Where Scorners seated are | B |
| But in God's Law both dayes and nights | C |
| To meditate delights | C |
| He shall be like a Planted Tree | B |
| We neere the Rivers see | B |
| Whose branches by their moisture spring | D |
| And fruits in season bring | D |
| No parching droughts his leaf invade | E |
| Or make his blossome fade | E |
| For God will his indeavours blesse | B |
| With prosperous successe | B |
| But wicked men themselves shall find | F |
| Like chaff blow'n by the wind | F |
| Nor in the finall Judgment must | G |
| Stand up among the Just | G |
| For God the righteous guides and knowes | B |
| The path wherein he goes | B |
| When wayes of Sinners perish shall | H |
| In their eternall fall | I |
