Wisdom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDDDDEFGHHIHIBHBH| The true faith discovered was | A |
| When painted panel statuary | B |
| Glass mosaic window glass | C |
| Amended what was told awry | D |
| By some peasant gospeller | D |
| Swept the Sawdust from the floor | D |
| Of that working carpenter | D |
| Miracle had its playtime where | D |
| In damask clothed and on a seat | E |
| Chryselephantine cedar boarded | F |
| His majestic Mother sat | G |
| Stitching at a purple hoarded | H |
| That He might be nobly breeched | H |
| In starry towers of Babylon | I |
| Noah's freshet never reached | H |
| King Abundance got Him on | I |
| Innocence and Wisdom He | B |
| That cognomen sounded best | H |
| Considering what wild infancy | B |
| Drove horror from His Mother's breast | H |
