Inspiration Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| At the golden gate of song | A |
| Stood I knocking all day long | A |
| But the Angel calm and cold | B |
| Still refused and bade me Hold | B |

| Then a breath of soft perfume | C |
| Then a light within the gloom | C |
| Thou Love camest to my side | D |
| And the gates flew open wide | D |

| Long I dwelt in this domain | E |
| Knew no sorrow grief or pain | E |
| Now you bid me forth and free | F |
| Will you shut these gates on me | F |
