A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xxiv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBACADEDEFF| And here too I the latest fool of Time | A |
| Sad child of doubt and passionate desires | B |
| Touched with all pity yet in league with crime | A |
| Watched the red sunsets from the Alpine spires | C |
| And lit my poet's lamp with kindred fires | B |
| And dared to snatch my share of the sublime | A |
| There was one with me master of the choirs | C |
| Of eloquent thought who listening to my rhyme | A |
| And seeing in me a soul set on things | D |
| Not wholly base although my need was sore | E |
| Bade me take courage and essay new wings | D |
| And thus it was I first beheld this shore | E |
| Mourning the loss yet half consoled of gain | F |
| The passionate pleader of youth's creed of pain | F |
