A Birth-night Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABACDD EFEFGH IJIJKK LMLMNN

The Child is rocked on Mary's kneeA
Cold in the stall this bitter nightB
And 'Lullalay loo ' soft singeth sheA
'My little Boy and Heaven's Delight 'C
When singing stars went up the skyD
The Prince of Peace oped a sweet eyeD
-
His Highness now how small He liesE
He to be God and Very GodF
A Jacob's ladder spans the skiesE
Whereof each rung is angel trodF
And all their carols are of PeaceG
Though the sick world hath little easeH
-
Come in poor war worn folk and restI
Kneel where the sinless creatures kneelJ
The Babe snugged warm in Mother's breastI
He is your Wound Wort your All HealJ
Balsam for hurts that throb and smartK
Small Rose of Love on Mary's heartK
-
Shut close within His hand so smallL
The sick heart's medicine not a swordM
Come in come in sad people allL
Here is your ancient peace restoredM
'Lullalay loo ' sings Mary mildN
Kissing her God her Lamb her ChildN
