Desire We Past Illusions To Recall Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEF| Desire we past illusions to recall | A |
| To reinstate wild Fancy would we hide | B |
| Truths whose thick veil Science has drawn aside | B |
| No let this Age high as she may install | A |
| In her esteem the thirst that wrought man's fall | A |
| The universe is infinitely wide | B |
| And conquering Reason if self glorified | B |
| Can nowhere move uncrossed by some new wall | A |
| Or gulf of mystery which thou alone | C |
| Imaginative Faith canst overleap | D |
| In progress toward the fount of Love the throne | C |
| Of Power whose ministers the records keep | D |
| Of periods fixed and laws established less | E |
| Flesh to exalt than prove its nothingness | F |
