Adam. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAAAA CDCDEDGod made him like the angels innocent | A |
And made a garden marvellously fair | B |
With arbors green sun kissed and dew besprent | A |
And fruits and flowers whose fragrance filled the air | B |
Where rivers four meandered with delight | A |
And in the soil were gleaming treasures laid | A |
Good gold and bdellium and the onyx bright | A |
And set therein the man whom He had made | A |
- | |
And proved to him by sad experience | C |
That not in bowers of indolence supine | D |
On beds of ease could ev'n Omnipotence | C |
Work out in man His last and best design | D |
And in great love and wisdom drove him thence | E |
And cursed him with a blessing most benign | D |
