The Vision Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GG| Long had she knelt at the Madonna's shrine | A |
| With the empty chapel cold and grey | B |
| Telling her beads while grief with marring line | A |
| And bitter tear stole all her youth away | B |
| - | |
| Outcast was she from what Life holdeth dear | C |
| Banished from joy that other souls might win | D |
| And from the dark beyond she turned with fear | C |
| Being so branded by the mark of sin | D |

| Yet when at last she raised her troubled face | E |
| Haunted by sorrow whitened by alarms | F |
| Mary leaned down from out the pictured place | E |
| And laid the little Christ within her arms | F |

| Rosy and warm she held Him to her heart | G |
| She the abandoned one the thing apart | G |
