Recollection Of The Portrait Of King Henry Eighth, Trinity Lodge, Cambridge Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAAEAEAAThe imperial Stature the colossal stride | A |
Are yet before me yet do I behold | B |
The broad full visage chest of amplest mould | B |
The vestments 'broidered with barbaric pride | A |
And lo a poniard at the Monarch's side | A |
Hangs ready to be grasped in sympathy | C |
With the keen threatenings of that fulgent eye | D |
Below the white rimmed bonnet far descried | A |
Who trembles now at thy capricious mood | A |
'Mid those surrounding Worthies haughty King | E |
We rather think with grateful mind sedate | A |
How Providence educeth from the spring | E |
Of lawless will unlooked for streams of good | A |
Which neither force shall check nor time abate | A |
