Countess's Pillar Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEFGG| While the Poor gather round till the end of time | A |
| May this bright flower of Charity display | B |
| Its bloom unfolding at the appointed day | B |
| Flower than the loveliest of the vernal prime | A |
| Lovelier transplanted from heaven's purest clime | A |
| Charity never faileth on that creed | C |
| More than on written testament or deed | C |
| The pious Lady built with hope sublime | A |
| Alms on this stone to be dealt out 'for ever ' | D |
| Laus Deo Many a Stranger passing by | E |
| Has with that Parting mixed a filial sigh | E |
| Blest its humane Memorials fond endeavour | F |
| And fastening on those lines an eye tear glazed | G |
| Has ended though no Clerk with God be praised | G |
