When He Tries The Hearts Of Men Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFFB ABGBHBIIB

As gold is tried in the furnaceA
So He tries the hearts of menB
And the dwale and the dross shall suffer lossC
When He tries the hearts of menB
And the wood and the hay and the stubbleD
Shall pass in the flame awayE
For gain is loss and loss is gainF
And treasure of earth is poor and vainF
When He tries the hearts of menB
-
As gold is refined in the furnaceA
So He fines the hearts of menB
The purge of the flame doth rid them of shameG
When He tries the hearts of menB
O better than gold yea than much fine goldH
When He tries the hearts of menB
Are Faith and Hope and Truth and LoveI
And the Wisdom that cometh from aboveI
When He tries the hearts of menB

William Arthur Dunkerley (john Oxenham)
