Wages Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEDCE| Sometimes the spirit that never leaves me quite | A |
| Taps at my heart when thou art in the way | B |
| Saying Now thy Queen cometh therefore pray | B |
| Lest she should see thee vile and at the sight | A |
| Shiver and fly back piteous to the light | A |
| That wanes when she is absent Then as I may | B |
| I wash my soil d hands and muttering say | B |
| Lord make me clean robe Thou me in Thy white | A |
| - | |
| So for a brief space clad in ecstasy | C |
| Pure disembodied I fall to kiss thy feet | D |
| And sense thy glory throbbing round about | E |
| Whereafter rising I hold thee in a sweet | D |
| And gentle converse that lifts me up to be | C |
| When thou art gone strange to the gross world's rout | E |
