When I Have Borne In Memory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBADEFEDF| WHEN I have borne in memory what has tamed | A |
| Great Nations how ennobling thoughts depart | B |
| When men change swords for ledgers and desert | C |
| The student's bower for gold some fears unnamed | A |
| I had my Country am I to be blamed | A |
| Now when I think of thee and what thou art | B |
| Verily in the bottom of my heart | B |
| Of those unfilial fears I am ashamed | A |
| For dearly must we prize thee we who find | D |
| In thee a bulwark for the cause of men | E |
| And I by my affection was beguiled | F |
| What wonder if a Poet now and then | E |
| Among the many movements of his mind | D |
| Felt for thee as a lover or a child | F |
William Wordsworth
