The Virgin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABBABAACCBMother whose virgin bosom was uncrost | A |
With the least shade of thought to sin allied | A |
Woman above all women glorified | A |
Our tainted nature's solitary boast | A |
Purer than foam on central ocean tost | A |
Brighter than eastern skies at daybreak strewn | B |
With fancied roses than the unblemished moon | B |
Before her wane begins on heaven's blue coast | A |
Thy image falls to earth Yet some I ween | B |
Not unforgiven the suppliant knee might bend | A |
As to a visible Power in which did blend | A |
All that was mixed and reconciled in thee | C |
Of mother's love with maiden purity | C |
Of high with low celestial with terrene | B |
William Wordsworth
