Sonnets - Sir Walter Scott Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABACDADEFGFThe Bard of ancient lore Like one forlorn | A |
He turned enamoured to the silent Past | B |
And searching down its mazes gray and vast | B |
As you might find the blossom by the thorn | A |
He found fair things in barren places cast | B |
And brought them up into the light of morn | A |
Lo Truth resplendent as a tropic dawn | C |
Shines always through his wond'rous pictures Hence | D |
The many quick emotions which are born | A |
Of an Imagination so intense | D |
The chargers' hoofs come tearing up the sward | E |
The claymores rattle in the restless sheath | F |
You close his page and almost look abroad | G |
For Highland glens and windy leagues of heath | F |
