Here Pause: The Poet Claims At Least This Praise Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEFEF| HERE pause the poet claims at least this praise | A |
| That virtuous Liberty hath been the scope | B |
| Of his pure song which did not shrink from hope | B |
| In the worst moment of these evil days | A |
| From hope the paramount 'duty' that Heaven lays | A |
| For its own honour on man's suffering heart | C |
| Never may from our souls one truth depart | C |
| That an accursed thing it is to gaze | A |
| On prosperous tyrants with a dazzled eye | D |
| Nor touched with due abhorrence of 'their' guilt | E |
| For whose dire ends tears flow and blood is spilt | E |
| And justice labours in extremity | F |
| Forget thy weakness upon which is built | E |
| O wretched man the throne of tyranny | F |
