Bothwell Castle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEAAEFGFFGFImmured in Bothwell's Towers at times the Brave | A |
So beautiful is the Clyde forgot to mourn | B |
The liberty they lost at Bannockburn | B |
Once on those steeps | C |
I | - |
roamed at large and have | D |
In mind the landscape as if still in sight | E |
The river glides the woods before me wave | A |
But by occasion tempted now I crave | A |
Needless renewal of an old delight | E |
Better to thank a dear and long past day | F |
For joy its sunny hours were free to give | G |
Than blame the present that our wish hath crost | F |
Memory like Sleep hath powers which dreams obey | F |
Dreams vivid dreams that are not fugitive | G |
How little that she cherishes is lost | F |
