and another one in Leigh Hunt, _Coronation Soliloquy_ (p. 225) which corresponds to the formula _a a₂ b ~₃ c c₂ b ~₃ d d₂ e ~₃ f₄ e ~₃_. In other stanzas parts only of tail-rhyme stanzas occur, as in a strophe of the form _a₄ b ~₃ c₄ b ~₃ d e d d₄ e₃ r R₄_, used by Wordsworth in _The Seven Sisters_ (iii. 15): _Seven Daughters had Lord Archibald, All children of one mother: You could not say in one short day What love they bore each other. A garland of seven lilies wrought! Seven Sisters that together dwell; But he, bold Knight as ever fought, Their Father, took of them no thought, He loved the wars so well. Sing mournfully, oh! mournfully, The solitude of Binnorie!_ Other stanzas of this kind are formed on the schemes _a₄ b₂ a₄ b₂ c c₂ d₃ e₄ d₂ e₄ d₂_ (Moore, _Love's Young Dream_), _a b b a c c d e e d₅ e₃_ (Swinburne, _Ave atque Vale_, Poems, ii. 71). Cf. _Metrik_, ii, §§ 436, 437. § =283. Stanzas of twelve lines= are very numerous. One of the Middle English period we have in Wright's _Spec. of Lyr. Poetry_, p. 27; it is formed on the scheme _a₄ b₃ a₄ b₃ b b b c₃ D D D₄ C₃_ and is similar to those ten-lined stanzas mentioned above, which consist of two Septenary verses and a tail-rhyme stanza; the second part of which, being the refrain, thus becomes the _cauda_ of the stanza. In the Modern English period some simple stanzas with an isometrical first part and parallel rhymes may be mentioned in the first place. These are constructed on the schemes _a a b b c c d d₄ e₄ f₂ e₄ f₂_, _a a b b c c d d e e f₄ f₃_ and occur in Mrs. Hemans (iv. 171; vii. 155); stanzas of this kind with crossed rhymes are likewise met with, e.g. _a ~ b a ~ b₄ c c₃ d₅ e e f f₃ d₅_ in Burns, p. 188. Pretty often we find stanzas for singing, the _cauda_ of which is enclosed by the _pedes_; in the first stanza the two _pedes_ together form the refrain, in the others, however, only the last one, e.g. in stanzas on the schemes _A ~ B A ~ B₄ c₄ d₃ c₄ d₃ A ~ B A ~ B₄_, _e ~ f e ~ f₄ g₄ h₃ g₄ h₃ A ~ B A ~ B₄_ in _Hymns Ancient and Mod._, No. 138, consisting of trochaic verses: _Christ is risen! Christ is risen! He hath burst His bonds in twain; Christ is risen! Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain! For our gain He suffered loss By Divine decree; He hath died upon the Cross, But our God is He._ _Christ is risen! Christ is risen! He hath burst His bonds in twain; Christ is risen! Christ is risen! Alleluia! swell the strain._ _See the chains of death are broken; Earth below and heaven above_, &c. &c.
