Miscellaneous Sonnets, 1842 - Ii - The Most Alluring Clouds That Mount The Sky Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACADEDEFFThe most alluring clouds that mount the sky | A |
Owe to a troubled element their forms | B |
Their hues to sunset If with raptured eye | A |
We watch their splendour shall we covet storms | B |
And wish the Lord of day his slow decline | C |
Would hasten that such pomp may float on high | A |
Behold already they forget to shine | C |
Dissolve and leave to him who gazed a sigh | A |
Not loth to thank each moment for its boon | D |
Of pure delight come whencesoe'er it may | E |
Peace let us seek to steadfast things attune | D |
Calm expectations leaving to the gay | E |
And volatile their love of transient bowers | F |
The house that cannot pass away be ours | F |
William Wordsworth
