To The Supreme Being From The Italian Of Michael Angelo Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBCDCCCEB| The prayers I make will then be sweet indeed | A |
| If Thou the spirit give by which I pray | B |
| My unassisted heart is barren clay | B |
| That of its native self can nothing feed | A |
| Of good and pious works thou art the seed | A |
| That quickens only where thou say'st it may | B |
| Unless Thou show to us thine own true way | B |
| No man can find it Father Thou must lead | C |
| Do Thou then breathe those thoughts into my mind | D |
| By which such virtue may in me be bred | C |
| That in thy holy footsteps I may tread | C |
| The fetters of my tongue do Thou unbind | C |
| That I may have the power to sing of thee | E |
| And sound thy praises everlastingly | B |
