Composed Among The Ruins Of A Castle In North Wales Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABAABAACDDCThrough shattered galleries 'mid roofless halls | A |
Wandering with timid footsteps oft betrayed | B |
The Stranger sighs nor scruples to upbraid | B |
Old Time though he gentlest among the Thralls | A |
Of Destiny upon these wounds hath laid | B |
His lenient touches soft as light that falls | A |
From the wan Moon upon the towers and walls | A |
Light deepening the profoundest sleep of shade | B |
Relic of Kings Wreck of forgotten wars | A |
To winds abandoned and the prying stars | A |
Time 'loves' Thee at his call the Seasons twine | C |
Luxuriant wreaths around thy forehead hoar | D |
And though past pomp no changes can restore | D |
A soothing recompense his gift is thine | C |
William Wordsworth
