Inscription 04 - For The Apartment In Chepstow-castle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIAJKLMNO| For thirty years secluded from mankind | A |
| Here Marten linger'd Often have these walls | B |
| Echoed his footsteps as with even tread | C |
| He paced around his prison not to him | D |
| Did Nature's fair varieties exist | E |
| He never saw the Sun's delightful beams | F |
| Save when thro' yon high bars it pour'd a sad | G |
| And broken splendor Dost thou ask his crime | H |
| He had rebell'd against the King and sat | I |
| In judgment on him for his ardent mind | A |
| Shaped goodliest plans of happiness on earth | J |
| And peace and liberty Wild dreams But such | K |
| As PLATO lov'd such as with holy zeal | L |
| Our MILTON worshipp'd Blessed hopes awhile | M |
| From man withheld even to the latter days | N |
| When CHRIST shall come and all things be fulfill'd | O |
