He Gave Me No Meat Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFHII| My brother I am hungry give me food | A |
| Such as my Father gives me at his board | B |
| He has for many years been to thee good | C |
| Thou canst a morsel then to me afford | B |
| I do not ask of thee a grain of that | D |
| Thou offerest when I call on thee for bread | E |
| This is not of the wine nor olive fat | D |
| But those who eat of this like thee are dead | E |
| I ask the love the Father has for thee | F |
| That thou should'st give it back to me again | G |
| This shall my soul from pangs of hunger free | F |
| And on my parched spirit fall like rain | H |
| Then thou wilt prove a brother to my need | I |
| For in the cross of Christ thou too canst bleed | I |
