Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Ii. - Viii - Crusaders Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEAAEAE| Furl we the sails and pass with tardy oars | A |
| Through these bright regions casting many a glance | B |
| Upon the dream like issues the romance | B |
| Of many coloured life that Fortune pours | A |
| Round the Crusaders till on distant shores | A |
| Their labours end or they return to lie | C |
| The vow performed in cross legged effigy | D |
| Devoutly stretched upon their chancel floors | A |
| Am I deceived Or is their requiem chanted | E |
| By voices never mute when Heaven unties | A |
| Her inmost softest tenderest harmonies | A |
| Requiem which Earth takes up with voice undaunted | E |
| When she would tell how Brave and Good and Wise | A |
| For their high guerdon not in vain have panted | E |
