Sonnet Xi. To Sheridan Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACAACDEFEGA| It was some spirit Sheridan that breath'd | A |
| O'er thy young mind such wildly various power | B |
| My soul hath marked thee in her shaping hour | B |
| Thy temples with Hymettian flowrets wreath'd | A |
| And sweet thy voice as when o'er Laura's bier | C |
| Sad music trembled thro' Vauclusa's glade | A |
| Sweet as at dawn the love lorn Serenade | A |
| That wafts soft dreams to Slumber's list'ning ear | C |
| Now patriot Rage and Indignation high | D |
| Swell the full tones And now thine eye beams dance | E |
| Meanings of Scorn and Wit's quaint revelry | F |
| Writhes inly from the bosom probing glance | E |
| Th' Apostate by the brainless rout adores | G |
| As erst that elder Fiend beneath great Michael's sword | A |
