Four Score Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBABBDBBE| I count the mercifullest part of all | A |
| God's mercies in this coil of eighty years | B |
| Is that no sense of being disappears | B |
| Or fails I see the signal hear the call | A |
| Can calmly estimate the rise and fall | A |
| Of moth like mortals in this vale of tears | C |
| And all His glorious works the heavenly spheres | B |
| The ocean and the earth's unending wall | A |
| Remain for thought and wonder Marvellous | B |
| Is God's creation with its endless space | B |
| And those inhabited bright worlds by law | D |
| Divinely governed as they shine on us | B |
| Still keeping through all time their ordered place | B |
| I bow my head in rapture and in awe | E |
