25th December, 0ce Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABCCCB DDDEEEEBehold the Christ child is born this day | A |
just as the prophets of old did say | A |
In a manger on the cozy hay | A |
did his infant Lordship choose to stay | A |
No cradle by a thousand kings paid | B |
for would befit his divine highness | C |
whose crown is celestial and priceless | C |
glowing with gems of regal brightness | C |
Yet in a manger so low he laid | B |
- | |
Behold the Christ child God's timeless gift | D |
who will from sin's merciless bondage lift | D |
men to heights from where they went adrift | D |
from God's intended realm in Eden | E |
His birth in yuletide our lives sweeten | E |
with lit golden marbles to lighten | E |
dark alleys which were once stress ridden | E |
