In The Channel, Between The Coast Of Cumberland And The Isle Of Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEDEED| Ranging the heights of Scawfell or Blackcomb | A |
| In his lone course the Shepherd oft will pause | B |
| And strive to fathom the mysterious laws | B |
| By which the clouds arrayed in light or gloom | A |
| On Mona settle and the shapes assume | A |
| Of all her peaks and ridges What he draws | B |
| From sense faith reason fancy of the cause | C |
| He will take with him to the silent tomb | A |
| Or by his fire a child upon his knee | D |
| Haply the untaught Philosopher may speak | E |
| Of the strange sight nor hide his theory | D |
| That satisfies the simple and the meek | E |
| Blest in their pious ignorance though weak | E |
| To cope with Sages undevoutly free | D |
