Look Now On That Adventurer Who Hath Paid Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAACADCADLOOK now on that Adventurer who hath paid | A |
His vows to Fortune who in cruel slight | B |
Of virtuous hope of liberty and right | B |
Hath followed wheresoe'er a way was made | A |
By the blind Goddess ruthless undismayed | A |
And so hath gained at length a prosperous height | A |
Round which the elements of worldly might | A |
Beneath his haughty feet like clouds are laid | A |
O joyless power that stands by lawless force | C |
Curses are 'his' dire portion scorn and hate | A |
Internal darkness and unquiet breath | D |
And if old judgments keep their sacred course | C |
Him from that height shall Heaven precipitate | A |
By violent and ignominious death | D |
William Wordsworth
