Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Iii. - Xxxix - Church To Be Erected Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCDEFEGGE| Be this the chosen site the virgin sod | A |
| Moistened from age to age by dewy eve | B |
| Shall disappear and grateful earth receive | B |
| The corner stone from hands that build to God | A |
| Yon reverend hawthorns hardened to the rod | A |
| Of winter storms yet budding cheerfully | C |
| Those forest oaks of Druid memory | C |
| Shall long survive to shelter the Abode | D |
| Of genuine Faith Where haply 'mid this band | E |
| Of daisies shepherds sate of yore and wove | F |
| May garlands there let the holy altar stand | E |
| For kneeling adoration while above | G |
| Broods visibly portrayed the mystic Dove | G |
| That shall protect from blasphemy the Land | E |
