In My Mind's Eye A Temple, Like A Cloud Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFGHD| In my mind's eye a Temple like a cloud | A |
| Slowly surmounting some invidious hill | B |
| Rose out of darkness the bright Work stood still | B |
| And might of its own beauty have been proud | A |
| But it was fashioned and to God was vowed | A |
| By Virtues that diffused in every part | C |
| Spirit divine through forms of human art | C |
| Faith had her arch her arch when winds blow loud | A |
| Into the consciousness of safety thrilled | D |
| And Love her towers of dread foundation laid | E |
| Under the grave of things Hope had her spire | F |
| Star high and pointing still to something higher | G |
| Trembling I gazed but heard a voice it said | H |
| Hell gates are powerless Phantoms when 'we' build | D |
William Wordsworth
