Look Now On That Adventurer Who Hath Paid Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAACADCAD

LOOK now on that Adventurer who hath paidA
His vows to Fortune who in cruel slightB
Of virtuous hope of liberty and rightB
Hath followed wheresoe'er a way was madeA
By the blind Goddess ruthless undismayedA
And so hath gained at length a prosperous heightA
Round which the elements of worldly mightA
Beneath his haughty feet like clouds are laidA
O joyless power that stands by lawless forceC
Curses are 'his' dire portion scorn and hateA
Internal darkness and unquiet breathD
And if old judgments keep their sacred courseC
Him from that height shall Heaven precipitateA
By violent and ignominious deathD

William Wordsworth
