Sonnet 05 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEDFDDFGG

Hard by the road where on that little moundA
The high grass rustles to the passing breezeB
The child of Misery rests her head in peaceC
Pause there in sadness That unhallowed groundA
Inshrines what once was Isabel Sleep onD
Sleep on poor Outcast lovely was thy cheekE
And thy mild eye was eloquent to speakE
The soul of Pity Pale and woe begoneD
Soon did thy fair cheek fade and thine eye weepF
The tear of anguish for the babe unbornD
The helpless heir of Poverty and ScornD
She drank the draught that chill'd her soul to sleepF
I pause and wipe the big drop from mine eyeG
Whilst the proud Levite scowls and passes byG
