Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBADEEFDFMilton thou should'st be living at this hour | A |
England hath need of thee she is a fen | B |
Of stagnant waters altar sword and pen | B |
Fireside the heroic wealth of hall and bower | A |
Have forfeited their ancient English dower | C |
Of inward happiness We are selfish men | B |
Oh raise us up return to us again | B |
And give us manners virtue freedom power | A |
Thy soul was like a Star and dwelt apart | D |
Thou hadst a voice whose sound was like the sea | E |
Pure as the naked heavens majestic free | E |
So didst thou travel on life's common way | F |
In cheerful godliness and yet thy heart | D |
The lowliest duties on herself did lay | F |
William Wordsworth
