God-seeking Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABABAB CDCDCD| God seeking thou hast journeyed far and nigh | A |
| On dawn lit mountain tops thy soul did yearn | B |
| To hear His trailing garments wander by | A |
| And where 'mid thunderous glooms great sunsets burn | B |
| Vainly thou sought'st His shadow on sea and sky | A |
| Or gazing up at noontide could'st discern | B |
| Only a neutral heaven's indifferent eye | A |
| And countenance austerely taciturn | B |
| - | |
| Yet whom thou soughtest I have found at last | C |
| Neither where tempest dims the world below | D |
| Nor where the westering daylight reels aghast | C |
| In conflagrations of red overthrow | D |
| But where this virgin brooklet silvers past | C |
| And yellowing either bank the king cups blow | D |
