Behind The Veil Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDF GHGHBANISH'D the House of sacred rest | A |
Amid a thoughtless throng | B |
At length I heard its creed confess'd | A |
And knelt the saints among | C |
- | |
Artless his strain and unadorn'd | D |
Who spoke Christ's message there | E |
But what at home I might have scorn'd | D |
Now charm'd my famish'd ear | F |
- | |
Lord grant me this abiding grace | G |
Thy Word and sons to know | H |
To pierce the veil on Moses' face | G |
Although his speech be slow | H |
John Henry Newman
