The Light That Is Felt Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAC DEDDE FAFFA| A tender child of summers three | A |
| Seeking her little bed at night | B |
| Paused on the dark stair timidly | A |
| 'Oh mother Take my hand ' said she | A |
| 'And then the dark will all be light ' | C |
| - | |
| We older children grope our way | D |
| From dark behind to dark before | E |
| And only when our hands we lay | D |
| Dear Lord in Thine the night is day | D |
| And there is darkness nevermore | E |
| - | |
| Reach downward to the sunless days | F |
| Wherein our guides are blind as we | A |
| And faith is small and hope delays | F |
| Take Thou the hands of prayer we raise | F |
| And let us feel the light of Thee | A |
