The Chrism Of Kings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDECE FGHGIJKJ L

In the morn of the world at the daybreak of timeA
When Kingdoms were few and Empires unknownB
God searched for a Ruler to sceptre the landC
And gather the harvest from the seed He had sownB
He found a young Shepherd boy watching his flockD
Where the mountains looked down on deep meadows of greenE
He hailed the young Shepherd boy king of the landC
And anointed his brow with a Chrism unseenE
-
He placed in his frail hands the sceptre of powerF
And taught his young heart all the wisdom of loveG
He gave him the vision of prophet and priestH
And dowered him with counsel and light from aboveG
But alas came a day when the Shepherd forgotI
And heaped on his realm all the woes that war bringsJ
And bartering his purple for the greed of his heartK
He lost both the sceptre and Chrism of KingsJ
