The Chrism Of Kings Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDECE FGHGIJKJ L| In the morn of the world at the daybreak of time | A |
| When Kingdoms were few and Empires unknown | B |
| God searched for a Ruler to sceptre the land | C |
| And gather the harvest from the seed He had sown | B |
| He found a young Shepherd boy watching his flock | D |
| Where the mountains looked down on deep meadows of green | E |
| He hailed the young Shepherd boy king of the land | C |
| And anointed his brow with a Chrism unseen | E |
| - | |
| He placed in his frail hands the sceptre of power | F |
| And taught his young heart all the wisdom of love | G |
| He gave him the vision of prophet and priest | H |
| And dowered him with counsel and light from above | G |
| But alas came a day when the Shepherd forgot | I |
| And heaped on his realm all the woes that war brings | J |
| And bartering his purple for the greed of his heart | K |
| He lost both the sceptre and Chrism of Kings | J |
