Ava Maria Plena Gratia Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCADDAEFGEFG| WAS this His coming I had hoped to see | A |
| A scene of wondrous glory as was told | B |
| Of some great God who in a rain of gold | B |
| Broke open bars and fell on Danae | C |
| Or a dread vision as when Semele | A |
| Sickening for love and unappeased desire | D |
| Prayed to see God's clear body and the fire | D |
| Caught her white limbs and slew her utterly | A |
| With such glad dreams I sought this holy place | E |
| And now with wondering eyes and heart I stand | F |
| Before this supreme mystery of Love | G |
| A kneeling girl with passionless pale face | E |
| An angel with a lily in his hand | F |
| And over both with outstretched wings the Dove | G |
