Ere With Cold Beads Of Midnight Dew Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHI JKJK

Ere with cold beads of midnight dewA
Had mingled tears of thineB
I grieved fond Youth that thou shouldst sueA
To haughty GeraldineC
-
Immoveable by generous sighsD
She glories in a trainE
Who drag beneath our native skiesD
An oriental chainE
-
Pine not like them with arms acrossF
Forgetting in thy careG
How the fast rooted trees can tossF
Their branches in mid airG
-
The humblest rivulet will takeH
Its own wild libertiesI
And every day the imprisoned lakeH
Is flowing in the breezeI
-
Then crouch no more on suppliant kneeJ
But scorn with scorn outbraveK
A Briton even in love should beJ
A subject not a slaveK

William Wordsworth
