Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGGG| IT is not life upon Thy gifts to live | A |
| But to grow fixed with deeper roots in Thee | B |
| And when the sun and shower their bounties give | C |
| To send out thick leaved limbs a fruitful tree | B |
| Whose green head meets the eye for many a mile | D |
| Whose moss grown arms their rigid branches rear | E |
| And full faced fruits their blushing welcome smile | D |
| As to its goodly shade our feet draw near | E |
| Who tastes its gifts shall never hunger more | F |
| For 'tis the Father spreads the pure repast | G |
| Who while we eat renews the ready store | F |
| Which at his bounteous board must ever last | G |
| For none the bridegroom's supper shall attend | G |
| Who will not hear and make his word their friend | G |
