Sonnet. To Peace Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGCome 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 |
