Poets And Their Bibliographies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFDE| Old poets foster'd under friendlier skies | A |
| Old Virgil who would write ten lines they say | B |
| At dawn and lavish all the golden day | B |
| To make them wealthier in his readers' eyes | A |
| And you old popular Horace you the wise | A |
| Adviser of the nine years ponder'd lay | B |
| And you that wear a wreath of sweeter bay | B |
| Catullus whose dead songster never dies | A |
| If glancing downward on the kindly sphere | C |
| That once had roll'd you round and round the sun | D |
| You see your Art still shrined in human shelves | E |
| You should be jubilant that you flourish'd here | F |
| Before the Love of Letters overdone | D |
| Had swampt the sacred poets with themselves | E |
Alfred Lord Tennyson
