Sonnet: On Seeing Miss Helen Maria Williams Weep At A Tale Of Distress Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHH| She wept Life's purple tide began to flow | A |
| In languid streams through every thrilling vein | B |
| Dim were my swimming eyes my pulse beat slow | A |
| And my full heart was swell'd to dear delicious pain | B |
| Life left my loaded heart and closing eye | C |
| A sigh recall'd the wanderer to my breast | D |
| Dear was the pause of life and dear the sigh | C |
| That call'd the wanderer home and home to rest | D |
| That tear proclaims in thee each virtue dwells | E |
| And bright will shine in misery's midnight hour | F |
| As the soft star of dewy evening tells | E |
| What radiant fires were drown'd by day's malignant pow'r | G |
| That only wait the darkness of the night | H |
| To cheer the wand'ring wretch with hospitable light | H |
