Upon The Sight Of A Beautiful Picture Painted By Sir G. H. Beaumont, Bart Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFGHGFPraised be the Art whose subtle power could stay | A |
Yon cloud and fix it in that glorious shape | B |
Nor would permit the thin smoke to escape | B |
Nor those bright sunbeams to forsake the day | A |
Which stopped that band of travellers on their way | A |
Ere they were lost within the shady wood | C |
And showed the Bark upon the glassy flood | D |
For ever anchored in her sheltering bay | A |
Soul soothing Art whom Morning Noontide Even | E |
Do serve with all their changeful pageantry | F |
Thou with ambition modest yet sublime | G |
Here for the sight of mortal man hast given | H |
To one brief moment caught from fleeting time | G |
The appropriate calm of blest eternity | F |
William Wordsworth
