Sonnet. To Peace Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Come long lost blessing heaven lov'd seraph haste | A |
| On pity's wings upborne a world's wide woes | B |
| Invoke thy smiles extatic long effac'd | A |
| Beneath the tear which all corrosive flows | B |
| While reason shudders let ambition weep | C |
| When wounding truth records what it has done | D |
| Records the hosts consign'd to death's cold sleep | C |
| Conspicuous 'mid the pomp of conflicts won | D |
| Shall not the fiend relent while groaning age | E |
| Pours its deep sorrows o'er its offspring slain | F |
| While sire robb'd infants mourn the deathful rage | E |
| In many a penury enfeebled strain | F |
| Sweet maid return behold affliction's tear | G |
| And in my theme accept a nation's prayer | G |
