Raleigh-s Cell In The Tower Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBBCDEEFC| HERE writ was the World's History by his hand | A |
| Whose steps knew all the earth albeit his world | B |
| In these few piteous paces then was furl'd | B |
| Here daily hourly have his proud feet spann'd | B |
| This smaller speck than the receding land | B |
| Had ever shown his ships what time he hurl'd | B |
| Abroad o'er new found regions spiced and pearl'd | B |
| His country's high dominion and command | B |
| Here dwelt two spheres The vast terrestrial zone | C |
| His spirit traversed and that spirit was | D |
| Itself the zone celestial round whose birth | E |
| The planets played within the zodiac's girth | E |
| Till hence through unjust death unfeared did pass | F |
| His spirit to the only land unknown | C |
