A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBABACDCEFF| Dear royal France I fix the happy year | A |
| At forty seven because that Christmas tide | B |
| There passed through Pau the Duke of Montpensier | A |
| Fresh from his nuptials with his Spanish bride | B |
| And because I unwilling shared their pride | B |
| As youngest of the English children there | A |
| By offering flowers to the fair glorified | B |
| Daughter of Bourbon standing on the stair | A |
| A point in history When we came at last | C |
| To this gay Paris I was doomed to love | D |
| There were already rumours of the blast | C |
| That swept the Orleans songsters from their grove | E |
| In flight to London after Polignac | F |
| And the true king at their King Bourgeois' back | F |
