#834: Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

This is a case of second person problems. Specifically, for the rhymes, we have both tree/thee and see/thee, but also givest/livest, which is the "thou" form...and another way to turn masculine rhymes into feminine ones. But just in general, I feel like by the 1860s most people weren't saying stuff like "thou reignest" or "thine angels" even if they weren't stretching for a rhyme. So yeah, this does come off as one of those "unnecessarily old-timey" ones, though I recognize as with everything else there's a balancing act in throwing together different eras and genres into one volume.

Render/splendor is a nice rhyme.
