On Lady Charles Beauclerc's Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDAEFGHIJKCCLMNor empty are the honours that we pay | A |
To the departed our own hearts are fill'd | B |
Brimfull with grateful reminiscences | C |
Compassion is excited the most stern | D |
Relent and better even the best return | D |
Such Teresita were my thoughts all day | A |
All night when thou wert carried to thy home | E |
Eternal amid tears thou couldst not share | F |
Thither where none not even of joy are shed | G |
Surrounded with God's own serenity | H |
Is that pure brow rais'd humbly to his throne | I |
Leaving thy home and those most dear awhile | J |
Thou a few months before wouldst have consoled | K |
My sufferings Who shall now console thy sire's | C |
Proud not of victories won in southern climes | C |
And equal laws administer'd but proud | L |
Of virtues he implanted in his child | M |
