Etienne De La Boéce Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDEFFGHIIJJKKLL CCMM

I serve you not if you I followA
Shadow like o'er hill and hollowA
And bend my fancy to your leadingB
All too nimble for my treadingB
When the pilgrimage is doneC
And we've the landscape overrunC
I am bitter vacant thwartedD
And your heart is unsupportedE
Vainly valiant you have missedF
The manhood that should yours resistF
Its complement but if I couldG
In severe or cordial moodH
Lead you rightly to my altarI
Where the wisest muses falterI
And worship that world warning sparkJ
Which dazzles me in midnight darkJ
Equalizing small and largeK
While the soul it doth surchargeK
That the poor is wealthy grownL
And the hermit never aloneL
The traveller and the road seem oneC
With the errand to be doneC
That were a man's and lover's partM
That were Freedom's whitest chartM
