Our Crown Of Praise Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| A PRAISE beyond all other praise of ours | A |
| This nation holds in jealous trust for him | B |
| Who may approve himself even in these dim | B |
| Swift days of destiny the soul that towers | A |
| Above the turmoil of contending powers | A |
| A beacon firm while seas of fury brim | B |
| The world's long labored fields and vineyards trim | B |
| Remembering forests and unconscious flowers | A |
| Our nation longs for such a living light | C |
| Kindred to stars and their eternal dreams | D |
| A steadfast glow whatever breakers roll | E |
| Cleaving confusions of the stormy night | C |
| With gracious lusters and revealing gleams | D |
| Longs for the shining of a Lincoln soul | E |
