Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: Xlvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGHGII| Sublime discussions Let who will be wise | A |
| These are the things that touch us and transcend | B |
| The logic of all beauty is surprise | A |
| The reason of all love the unseen end | B |
| Still as they argued on of this and that | C |
| Turning perchance to me as arbiter | D |
| Where in my corner I still speechless sat | C |
| To end their strife my vision seemed to clear | E |
| The scales fell from my eyes of ignorance | F |
| The terror from my heart One thing alone | G |
| Stood plain before me the supreme fair chance | H |
| Of a first fortune glorious and unknown | G |
| Which beckoned me with no uncertain hand | I |
| To touch and taste and learn and understand | I |
