Mary Queen Of Scots - Landing At The Mouth Of The Derwent, Workington Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFEGHDear to the Loves and to the Graces vowed | A |
The Queen drew back the wimple that she wore | B |
And to the throng that on the Cumbrian shore | B |
Her landing hailed how touchingly she bowed | A |
And like a Star that from a heavy cloud | A |
Of pine tree foliage poised in air forth darts | C |
When a soft summer gale at evening parts | C |
The gloom that did its loveliness enshroud | A |
She smiled but Time the old Saturnian seer | D |
Sighed on the wing as her foot pressed the strand | E |
With step prelusive to a long array | F |
Of woes and degradations hand in hand | E |
Weeping captivity and shuddering fear | G |
Stilled by the ensanguined block of Fotheringay | H |
