Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Ii. - Xxxiii - Revival Of Popery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEDE| The saintly Youth has ceased to rule discrowned | A |
| By unrelenting Death O People keen | B |
| For change to whom the new looks always green | B |
| Rejoicing did they cast upon the ground | A |
| Their Gods of wood and stone and at the sound | A |
| Of counter proclamation now are seen | B |
| Proud triumph is it for a sullen Queen | B |
| Lifting them up the worship to confound | A |
| Of the Most High Again do they invoke | C |
| The Creature to the Creature glory give | D |
| Again with frankincense the altars smoke | C |
| Like those the Heathen served and mass is sung | E |
| And prayer man's rational prerogative | D |
| Runs through blind channels of an unknown tongue | E |
