Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDCEHome of the pure in heart and tranquil mind | A |
Temple of love's white silence holy Night | B |
Greater than splendid thought or iron might | B |
Thy lofty peace unswept by any wind | A |
Of human sorrow leaves all care behind | A |
Uplifted to the zenith of thy height | B |
My world worn spirit drinks thy calm delight | B |
And chrysalis like lets slip its earthly rind | A |
The blinded feuds base passions and fierce guilt | C |
Vain pride and falseness that enslaved the day | D |
Here dwindle and fade with all that mocks and mars | E |
Where wisdom awed walks hushed with lips that pray | D |
'Neath this high minster dim invisible built | C |
Vast walled with deeps of space and roofed with stars | E |
