Memorials Of A Tour In Italy, 1837 - Iii. - At Rome Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABACDAEFEFEF

Is this ye Gods the Capitolian HillA
Yon petty Steep in truth the fearful RockB
Tarpeian named of yore and keeping stillA
That name a local Phantom proud to mockB
The Traveler's expectation Could our WillA
Destroy the ideal Power within 'twere doneC
Thro' what men see and touch slaves wandering onD
Impelled by thirst of all but Heaven taught skillA
Full oft our wish obtained deeply we sighE
Yet not unrecompensed are they who learnF
From that depression raised to mount on highE
With stronger wing more clearly to discernF
Eternal things and if need be defyE
Change with a brow not insolent though sternF

William Wordsworth
