The Star Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD AEACCC F| I stood one azure dusk in old Auxerre | A |
| Before the grey Cathedral's towering height | B |
| And in the Eastern darkness very fair | A |
| I saw a little star that twinkled bright | B |
| How small it looked beside the mighty pile | C |
| Whose stone was rosy with the Western glow | D |
| A little star I pondered for a while | C |
| And then the solemn truth began to know | D |
| - | |
| That tiny star was some enormous sphere | A |
| The great cathedral was an atomy | E |
| So often when grey trouble looms so near | A |
| That God shines in our minds but distantly | C |
| If we but thought our grief would seem so small | C |
| That we would see that God's great love was all | C |
