A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCBDBEFG

And what strange sights have these threewindows seenA
Mid bonnes and children in the TuileriesB
What flights of hero Emperor and QueenA
Since first I looked down from them one of theseB
Here with his Mornys and his PersignysB
Louis Napoleon the Prince PresidentC
Rode one December past us on the breezeB
Of his new glory bloodstained and intentC
Later I too my love's diplomaciesB
Played at Eugenia's court blest Empress ThenD
How did men curse her with their MarseillaiseB
When the foe's horse was watered in her SeineE
And the flames lit for her last festivalF
Licked out her palace and its glories allG
