He Loves Me Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBA DEDFGEThat God should love me is more wonderful | A |
Than that I so imperfectly love him | B |
My reason is mortality and dim | B |
Senses his oh insupportable | A |
Is that he sees me Even when I pull | C |
Dark thoughts about my head each vein and limb | B |
Delights him though remembrance in him grim | B |
With my worst crimes should prove me horrible | A |
- | |
And he has terrors that he can release | D |
But when he looks he loves me which is why | E |
I wonder and my wonder must increase | D |
Till more of it shall slay me Yet I live | F |
I live and he has never ceased to give | G |
This glance at me that sweetens the whole sky | E |
