Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Ii. - Xxix - Translation Of The Bible Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBADEEFDF| But to outweigh all harm the sacred Book | A |
| In dusty sequestration wrapt too long | B |
| Assumes the accents of our native tongue | C |
| And he who guides the plough or wields the crook | A |
| With understanding spirit now may look | A |
| Upon her records listen to her song | B |
| And sift her laws much wondering that the wrong | B |
| Which Faith has suffered Heaven could calmly brook | A |
| Transcendent boon noblest that earthly King | D |
| Ever bestowed to equalize and bless | E |
| Under the weight of mortal wretchedness | E |
| But passions spread like plagues and thousands wild | F |
| With bigotry shall tread the Offering | D |
| Beneath their feet detested and defiled | F |
