Inscription 08 - For The Cenotaph At Ermenonville Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNSTRANGER the MAN OF NATURE lies not here | A |
Enshrin'd far distant by his rival's side | B |
His relics rest there by the giddy throng | C |
With blind idolatry alike revered | D |
Wiselier directed have thy pilgrim feet | E |
Explor'd the scenes of Ermenonville ROUSSEAU | F |
Loved these calm haunts of Solitude and Peace | G |
Here he has heard the murmurs of the stream | H |
And the soft rustling of the poplar grove | I |
When o'er their bending boughs the passing wind | J |
Swept a grey shade Here if thy breast be full | K |
If in thine eye the tear devout should gush | L |
His SPIRIT shall behold thee to thine home | M |
From hence returning purified of heart | N |
