Forth From A Jutting Ridge, Around Whose Base Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQNRN STUVWX| Forth from a jutting ridge around whose base | A |
| Winds our deep Vale two heath clad Rocks ascend | B |
| In fellowship the loftiest of the pair | C |
| Rising to no ambitious height yet both | D |
| O'er lake and stream mountain and flowery mead | E |
| Unfolding prospects fair as human eyes | F |
| Ever beheld Up led with mutual help | G |
| To one or other brow of those twin Peaks | H |
| Were two adventurous Sisters wont to climb | I |
| And took no note of the hour while thence they gazed | J |
| The blooming heath their couch gazed side by side | K |
| In speechless admiration I a witness | L |
| And frequent sharer of their calm delight | M |
| With thankful heart to either Eminence | N |
| Gave the baptismal name each Sister bore | O |
| Now are they parted far as Death's cold hand | P |
| Hath power to part the Spirits of those who love | Q |
| As they did love Ye kindred Pinnacles | N |
| That while the generations of mankind | R |
| Follow each other to their hiding place | N |
| In time's abyss are privileged to endure | S |
| Beautiful in yourselves and richly graced | T |
| With like command of beauty grant your aid | U |
| For Mary's humble Sarah's silent claim | V |
| That their pure joy in nature may survive | W |
| From age to age in blended memory | X |
