Song #7. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFGHIHJ| You too shall know that I have prayed | A |
| Beneath the mystic tree | B |
| Whose branches at the first were made | A |
| Out of God's memory | B |
| Beneath those boughs my soul has knelt | C |
| And each leaf bending down | D |
| Stirred with my heart as it had felt | C |
| A rapture like its own | E |
| I dared not touch the holy thing | F |
| But made my prayer a breath | G |
| Intense as is the passioning | F |
| Of lover gone to death | G |
| Who sees the dark flood he must cross | H |
| Without his love afar | I |
| And bears with him that bitter loss | H |
| 'Where the Eternal are ' | J |
