Sonnet. On Launching Some Bottles Filled With Knowledge Into The Bristol Channel Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDCEFGHFII| Vessels of heavenly medicine may the breeze | A |
| Auspicious waft your dark green forms to shore | B |
| Safe may ye stem the wide surrounding roar | B |
| Of the wild whirlwinds and the raging seas | A |
| And oh if Liberty e'er deigned to stoop | C |
| From yonder lowly throne her crownless brow | D |
| Sure she will breathe around your emerald group | C |
| The fairest breezes of her West that blow | E |
| Yes she will waft ye to some freeborn soul | F |
| Whose eye beam kindling as it meets your freight | G |
| Her heaven born flame in suffering Earth will light | H |
| Until its radiance gleams from pole to pole | F |
| And tyrant hearts with powerless envy burst | I |
| To see their night of ignorance dispersed | I |
