The Virgin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABBABAACCB| Mother 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 |
