Sonnet 05 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEDFDDFGGHard by the road where on that little mound | A |
The high grass rustles to the passing breeze | B |
The child of Misery rests her head in peace | C |
Pause there in sadness That unhallowed ground | A |
Inshrines what once was Isabel Sleep on | D |
Sleep on poor Outcast lovely was thy cheek | E |
And thy mild eye was eloquent to speak | E |
The soul of Pity Pale and woe begone | D |
Soon did thy fair cheek fade and thine eye weep | F |
The tear of anguish for the babe unborn | D |
The helpless heir of Poverty and Scorn | D |
She drank the draught that chill'd her soul to sleep | F |
I pause and wipe the big drop from mine eye | G |
Whilst the proud Levite scowls and passes by | G |
