Hope Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFEGG| As one who long by wasting sickness worn | A |
| Weary has watched the lingering night and heard | B |
| Unmoved the carol of the matin bird | B |
| Salute his lonely porch now first at morn | A |
| Goes forth leaving his melancholy bed | C |
| He the green slope and level meadow views | D |
| Delightful bathed with slow ascending dews | D |
| Or marks the clouds that o'er the mountain's head | C |
| In varying forms fantastic wander white | E |
| Or turns his ear to every random song | F |
| Heard the green river's winding marge along | F |
| The whilst each sense is steeped in still delight | E |
| So o'er my breast young Summer's breath I feel | G |
| Sweet Hope thy fragrance pure and healing incense steal | G |
