The Bohemian Hymn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDE FFGHHG

In many forms we tryA
To utter God's infinityB
But the boundless hath no formC
And the Universal FriendD
Doth as far transcendD
An angel as a wormE
-
The great Idea baffles witF
Language falters under itF
It leaves the learned in the lurchG
Nor art nor power nor toil can findH
The measure of the eternal MindH
Nor hymn nor prayer nor churchG
