Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Iii. - Ix - William The Third Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDAEFEGEF| Calm as an under current strong to draw | A |
| Millions of waves into itself and run | B |
| From sea to sea impervious to the sun | B |
| And ploughing storm the spirit of Nassau | A |
| Swerves not how blest if by religious awe | C |
| Swayed and thereby enabled to contend | D |
| With the wide world's commotions from its end | D |
| Swerves not diverted by a casual law | A |
| Had mortal action e'er a nobler scope | E |
| The Hero comes to liberate not defy | F |
| And while he marches on with steadfast hope | E |
| Conqueror beloved expected anxiously | G |
| The vacillating Bondman of the Pope | E |
| Shrinks from the verdict of his stedfast eye | F |
