God Fashioned The Ship Of The World Carefully Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDAEFAGHIJKLMFGod fashioned the ship of the world carefully | A |
With the infinite skill of an All Master | B |
Made He the hull and the sails | C |
Held He the rudder | B |
Ready for adjustment | D |
Erect stood He scanning His work proudly | A |
Then at fateful time a wrong called | E |
And God turned heeding | F |
Lo the ship at this opportunity slipped slyly | A |
Making cunning noiseless travel down the ways | G |
So that forever rudderless it went upon the seas | H |
Going ridiculous voyages | I |
Making quaint progress | J |
Turning as with serious purpose | K |
Before stupid winds | L |
And there were many in the sky | M |
Who laughed at this thing | F |
