To Cordelia M.... - Hallsteads, Ullswater Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECEDNot in the mines beyond the western main | A |
You say Cordelia was the metal sought | B |
Which a fine skill of Indian growth has wrought | B |
Into this flexible yet faithful Chain | A |
Nor is it silver of romantic Spain | A |
But from our loved Helvellyn's depths was brought | B |
Our own domestic mountain Thing and thought | B |
Mix strangely trifles light and partly vain | A |
Can prop as you have learnt our nobler being | C |
Yes Lady while about your neck is wound | D |
Your casual glance oft meeting this bright cord | E |
What witchery for pure gifts of inward seeing | C |
Lurks in it Memory's Helper Fancy's Lord | E |
For precious tremblings in your bosom found | D |
William Wordsworth
