Inside Of King's College Chapel, Cambridge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDAEFFGEHTax not the royal Saint with vain expense | A |
With ill matched aims the Architect who planned | B |
Albeit labouring for a scanty band | B |
Of white robed Scholars only this immense | A |
And glorious Work of fine intelligence | C |
Give all thou canst high Heaven rejects the lore | D |
Of nicely calculated less or more | D |
So deemed the man who fashioned for the sense | A |
These lofty pillars spread that branching roof | E |
Self poised and scooped into ten thousand cells | F |
Where light and shade repose where music dwells | F |
Lingering and wandering on as loth to die | G |
Like thoughts whose very sweetness yieldeth proof | E |
That they were born for immortality | H |
