The Drunkards In The Street Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDB EFEF GHDH

The Drunkards in the street are calling one anotherA
Heeding not the night wind great of heart and gayB
Publicans and wantonsC
Calling laughing callingD
While the Spirit bloweth Space and Time awayB
-
Why should I feel the sobbing the secrecy the gloryE
This comforter this fitful wind divineF
I the cautious Pharisee the scribe the whited sepulchreE
I have no right to God he is not mineF
-

-
Within their gutters drunkards dream of HellG
I say my prayers by my white bed to nightH
With the arms of God about me with the angels singing singingD
Until the grayness of my soul grows whiteH
