Miscellaneous Sonnets, 1842 - I - 'a Poet'! He Hath Put His Heart To School Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABAABCDCDCD'A poet' He hath put his heart to school | A |
Nor dares to move unpropped upon the staff | B |
Which Art hath lodged within his hand must laugh | B |
By precept only and shed tears by rule | A |
Thy Art be Nature the live current quaff | B |
And let the groveler sip his stagnant pool | A |
In fear that else when Critics grave and cool | A |
Have killed him Scorn should write his epitaph | B |
How does the Meadow flower its bloom unfold | C |
Because the lovely little flower is free | D |
Down to its root and in that freedom bold | C |
And so the grandeur of the Forest tree | D |
Comes not by casting in a formal mould | C |
But from its 'own' divine vitality | D |
William Wordsworth
