His Wish To God Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFFEEGG| I would to God that mine old age might have | A |
| Before my last but here a living grave | B |
| Some one poor almshouse there to lie or stir | C |
| Ghost like as in my meaner sepulchre | C |
| A little piggin and a pipkin by | D |
| To hold things fitting my necessity | E |
| Which rightly us'd both in their time and place | F |
| Might me excite to fore and after grace | F |
| Thy cross my Christ fix'd 'fore mine eyes should be | E |
| Not to adore that but to worship Thee | E |
| So here the remnant of my days I'd spend | G |
| Reading Thy bible and my book so end | G |
