To M.p. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| The Critic grieves at Virtue's loss | A |
| And rails at Evil's stride | B |
| But Love still holds aloft the Cross | A |
| And shows the Crucified | B |
| - | |
| One safe in a secure retreat | C |
| Disdains the maddened throng | D |
| The other braves the seething street | C |
| And strives to right the wrong | D |
| - | |
| Self shudders at the angry waves | E |
| And dreams of what should be | F |
| But Love the sinking sinner saves | E |
| And stills the stormy sea | F |
