Miscellaneous Sonnets, 1842 - Vii - Men Of The Western World Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACABCADEFGGH| Men of the Western World in Fate's dark book | A |
| Whence these opprobrious leaves of dire portent | B |
| Think ye your British Ancestors forsook | A |
| Their native Land for outrage provident | C |
| From unsubmissive necks the bridle shook | A |
| To give in their Descendants freer vent | B |
| And wider range to passions turbulent | C |
| To mutual tyranny a deadlier look | A |
| Nay said a voice soft as the south wind's breath | D |
| Dive through the stormy surface of the flood | E |
| To the great current flowing underneath | F |
| Explore the countless springs of silent good | G |
| So shall the truth be better understood | G |
| And thy grieved Spirit brighten strong in faith | H |
