Sonnets - Ii. - Roman Antiquities Discovered At Bishopstone, Herefordshire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEEDDEWhile poring Antiquarians search the ground | A |
Upturned with curious pains the Bard a Seer | B |
Takes fire The men that have been reappear | C |
Romans for travel girt for business gowned | A |
And some recline on couches myrtle crowned | A |
In festal glee why not For fresh and clear | C |
As if its hues were of the passing year | C |
Dawns this time buried pavement From that mound | A |
Hoards may come forth of Trajans Maximins | D |
Shrunk into coins with all their warlike toil | E |
Or a fierce impress issues with its foil | E |
Of tenderness the Wolf whose suckling Twins | D |
The unlettered ploughboy pities when he wins | D |
The casual treasure from the furrowed soil | E |
