A Child-s Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEFEGG HIHIJJWHEN the Child played in Galilee | A |
He had no wine clear maple leaves | B |
No west winds singing of the sea | A |
Over the frosted sheaves | B |
But with pale myrrh His head was bound | C |
And crowned | C |
- | |
When the Child lived in Nazareth | D |
He watched the golden anise seed | E |
With daisies white in the wind's breath | F |
And hyssop flowering for His need | E |
While the late crocus from the sod | G |
Flamed for her God | G |
- | |
When the Child dwelt in Palestine | H |
Over the brooks the willow grew | I |
Olive and aspen oak and pine | H |
Sweet sycamore and yew | I |
But one dark Tree of all the seven | J |
Stood high as heaven | J |
