Sister Saint Luke Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBBBAABAShe lived shut in by flowers and trees | A |
And shade of gentle bigotries | A |
On this side lay the trackless sea | A |
On that the great world's mystery | A |
But all unseen and all unguessed | B |
They could not break upon her rest | B |
The world's far splendors gleamed and flashed | B |
Afar the wild seas foamed and dashed | B |
But in her small dull Paradise | A |
Safe housed from rapture or surprise | A |
Nor day nor night had power to fright | B |
The peace of God that filled her eyes | A |
