Wishing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBAAADEDEFF| When I reflect how little I have done | A |
| And add to that how little I have seen | B |
| Then furthermore how little I have won | A |
| Of joy or good how little known or been | C |
| I long for other life more full more keen | B |
| And yearn to change with such as well have run | A |
| Yet reason mocks me nay the soul I ween | A |
| Granted her choice would dare to change with none | A |
| No not to feel as Blondel when his lay | D |
| Pierced the strong tower and Richard answered it | E |
| No not to do as Eustace on the day | D |
| He left fair Calais to her weeping lit | E |
| No not to be Columbus waked from sleep | F |
| When his new world rose from the charm d deep | F |
