The New Birth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| a new life thoughts move not as they did | A |
| With slow uncertain steps across my mind | B |
| In thronging haste fast pressing on they bid | A |
| The portals open to the viewless wind | B |
| That comes not save when in the dust is laid | C |
| The crown of pride that gilds each mortal brow | D |
| And from before man's vision melting fade | C |
| The heavens and earth their walls are falling now | D |
| Fast crowding on each thought asks utterance strong | E |
| Storm lifted waves swift rushing to the shore | F |
| On from the sea they send their shouts along | E |
| Back through the cave worn rocks their thunders roar | F |
| And I a child of God by Christ made free | G |
| Start from death's slumbers to Eternity | G |
