At Bala-sala, Isle Of Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEFGG| Broken in fortune but in mind entire | A |
| And sound in principle I seek repose | B |
| Where ancient trees this convent pile enclose | B |
| In ruin beautiful When vain desire | A |
| Intrudes on peace I pray the eternal Sire | A |
| To cast a soul subduing shade on me | C |
| A grey haired pensive thankful Refugee | C |
| A shade but with some sparks of heavenly fire | A |
| Once to these cells vouchsafed And when I note | D |
| The old Tower's brow yellowed as with the beams | E |
| Of sunset ever there albeit streams | E |
| Of stormy weather stains that semblance wrought | F |
| I thank the silent Monitor and say | G |
| Shine so my aged brow at all hours of the day | G |
