Sonnet To Expression Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEFGHHIJJ| Expression child of soul I fondly trace | A |
| Thy strong enchantments when the poet's lyre | B |
| The painter's pencil catch thy sacred fire | C |
| And beauty wakes for thee her touching grace | A |
| But from this frighted glance thy form avert | D |
| When horrors check thy tear thy struggling sigh | E |
| When frenzy rolls in thy impassion'd eye | E |
| Or guilt sits heavy on thy lab'ring heart | F |
| Nor ever let my shudd'ring fancy bear | G |
| The wasting groan or view the pallid look | H |
| Of him A the Muses lov'd when hope forsook | H |
| His spirit vainly to the Muses dear | I |
| For charm'd with heav'nly song this bleeding breast | J |
| Mourns the blest power of verse could give despair no rest | J |
