Behind The Veil Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDF GHGH| BANISH'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 |
