Love And Discipline Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAA AAA BBC DDD EEE FGF| Since in a land not barren still | A |
| Because Thou dost Thy grace distill | A |
| My lot is fallen blest be Thy will | A |
| - | |
| And since these biting frosts but kill | A |
| Some tares in me which choke or spill | A |
| That seed Thou sow'st blest be Thy skill | A |
| - | |
| Blest be Thy dew and blest Thy frost | B |
| And happy I to be so crossed | B |
| And cured by crosses at Thy cost | C |
| - | |
| The dew doth cheer what is distressed | D |
| The frosts ill weeds nip and molest | D |
| In both Thou work'st unto the best | D |
| - | |
| Thus while Thy several mercies plot | E |
| And work on me now cold now hot | E |
| The work goes on and slacketh not | E |
| - | |
| For as Thy hand the weather steers | F |
| So thrive I best 'twixt joys and tears | G |
| And all the year have some green ears | F |
