Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Iii. - Vi - Clerical Integrity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFCD| Nor shall the eternal roll of praise reject | A |
| Those Unconforming whom one rigorous day | B |
| Drives from their Cures a voluntary prey | B |
| To poverty and grief and disrespect | A |
| And some to want as if by tempests wrecked | A |
| On a wild coast how destitute did They | B |
| Feel not that Conscience never can betray | B |
| That peace of mind is Virtue's sure effect | A |
| Their altars they forego their homes they quit | C |
| Fields which they love and paths they daily trod | D |
| And cast the future upon Providence | E |
| As men the dictate of whose inward sense | F |
| Outweighs the world whom self deceiving wit | C |
| Lures not from what they deem the cause of God | D |
