A Ballad Of Trees And The Master Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCCB AABBAAAB D

Into the woods my Master wentA
Clean forspent forspentA
Into the woods my Master cameB
Forspent with love and shameB
But the olives they were not blind to HimC
The little gray leaves were kind to HimC
The thorn tree had a mind to HimC
When into the woods He cameB
-
Out of the woods my Master wentA
And He was well contentA
Out of the woods my Master cameB
Content with death and shameB
When Death and Shame would woo Him lastA
From under the trees they drew Him lastA
'Twas on a tree they slew Him lastA
When out of the woods He cameB
