Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part I. - Ii - Conjectures Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADADEAE| If there be prophets on whose spirits rest | A |
| Past things revealed like future they can tell | B |
| What Powers presiding o'er the sacred well | B |
| Of Christian Faith this savage Island blessed | A |
| With its first bounty Wandering through the west | A |
| Did holy Paul a while in Britain dwell | B |
| And call the Fountain forth by miracle | C |
| And with dread signs the nascent Stream invest | A |
| Or He whose bonds dropped off whose prison doors | D |
| Flew open by an Angel's voice unbarred | A |
| Or some of humbler name to these wild shores | D |
| Storm driven who having seen the cup of woe | E |
| Pass from their Master sojourned here to guard | A |
| The precious Current they had taught to flow | E |
