Any Poet At Any Time Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFEGHGHII| Time thou supreme inexorable Judge | A |
| Whom none can bribe and none can overawe | B |
| Who unto party rancour private grudge | A |
| Calmly opposeth equitable law | C |
| Before whom advocacy vainly strives | D |
| To make the better cause to seem the worse | E |
| To thy Tribunal when our jangling lives | F |
| Are husht I leave the verdict on my verse | E |
| Irrevocably then wilt thou proclaim | G |
| What should have been what now must ever be | H |
| If in oblivion perish should my name | G |
| Or shine aloft in mighty company | H |
| I to my kind proffering of my poor best | I |
| Remit to Time's arbitrament the rest | I |
