A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xxii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEDEFF| Unblest discovery of an age too real | A |
| They needed not the beauty of the Earth | B |
| Who held Heaven's hope for their supreme ideal | A |
| And found in worlds unseen a better birth | B |
| What to the eye of faith were the hills worth | B |
| The voiceless forests the unpeopled coasts | C |
| The wildernesses void of sentient mirth | B |
| In death men praise thee not Thou Lord of Hosts | C |
| But when faith faltered when the hope grew dim | D |
| And Heaven was hid with phantoms of despair | E |
| And Man stood trembling on destruction's brim | D |
| Then turned he to the Earth and found her fair | E |
| His home his refuge which no doubt could rob | F |
| A beauty throbbing to his own heart's throb | F |
