On The Death Of His Majesty (george The Third) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDEFGWard of the Law dread Shadow of a King | A |
Whose realm had dwindled to one stately room | B |
Whose universe was gloom immersed in gloom | B |
Darkness as thick as life o'er life could fling | A |
Save haply for some feeble glimmering | A |
Of Faith and Hope if thou by nature's doom | B |
Gently hast sunk into the quiet tomb | B |
Why should we bend in grief to sorrow cling | A |
When thankfulness were best Fresh flowing tears | C |
Or where tears flow not sigh succeeding sigh | D |
Yield to such after thought the sole reply | D |
Which justly it can claim The Nation hears | E |
In this deep knell silent for threescore years | F |
An unexampled voice of awful memory | G |
