The Mother Of God Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDC EEFGF HHIJK

The threefold terror of love a fallen flareA
Through the hollow of an earB
Wings beating about the roomC
The terror of all terrors that I boreD
The Heavens in my wombC
-
Had I not found content among the showsE
Every common woman knowsE
Chimney corner garden walkF
Or rocky cistern where we tread the clothesG
And gather all the talkF
-
What is this flesh I purchased with my painsH
This fallen star my milk sustainsH
This love that makes my heart's blood stopI
Or strikes a Sudden chill into my bonesJ
And bids my hair stand upK

William Butler Yeats
