A Child-s Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEFEGG HIHIJJ

WHEN the Child played in GalileeA
He had no wine clear maple leavesB
No west winds singing of the seaA
Over the frosted sheavesB
But with pale myrrh His head was boundC
And crownedC
-
When the Child lived in NazarethD
He watched the golden anise seedE
With daisies white in the wind's breathF
And hyssop flowering for His needE
While the late crocus from the sodG
Flamed for her GodG
-
When the Child dwelt in PalestineH
Over the brooks the willow grewI
Olive and aspen oak and pineH
Sweet sycamore and yewI
But one dark Tree of all the sevenJ
Stood high as heavenJ
