Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Iii. - Xxxiii - Regrets Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCDC| Would that our scrupulous Sires had dared to leave | A |
| Less scanty measure of those graceful rites | B |
| And usages whose due return invites | B |
| A stir of mind too natural to deceive | A |
| Giving to Memory help when she would weave | A |
| A crown for Hope I dread the boasted lights | B |
| That all too often are but fiery blights | B |
| Killing the bud o'er which in vain we grieve | A |
| Go seek when Christmas snows discomfort bring | C |
| The counter Spirit found in some gay church | D |
| Green with fresh holly every pew a perch | D |
| In which the linnet or the thrush might sing | C |
| Merry and loud and safe from prying search | D |
| Strains offered only to the genial Spring | C |
William Wordsworth
