Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Ii. - Xxxv - Cranmer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEED| Outstretching flameward his upbraided hand | A |
| O God of mercy may no earthly Seat | B |
| Of judgment such presumptuous doom repeat | B |
| Amid the shuddering throng doth Cranmer stand | A |
| Firm as the stake to which with iron band | A |
| His frame is tied firm from the naked feet | B |
| To the bare head The victory is complete | B |
| The shrouded Body to the Soul's command | A |
| Answers with more than Indian fortitude | C |
| Through all her nerves with finer sense endued | C |
| Till breath departs in blissful aspiration | D |
| Then 'mid the ghastly ruins of the fire | E |
| Behold the unalterable heart entire | E |
| Emblem of faith untouched miraculous attestation | D |
