Touchstone On A Bus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIJKILHMN| Last night I rode with Touchstone on a bus | A |
| From Ludgate Hill to World's End It was he | B |
| Despite the broadcloth and the bowler hat | C |
| I knew him Touchstone the wild flower of folly | B |
| The whetstone of his age the scourge of kings | D |
| The madcap morning star of elfin land | E |
| Who used to wrap his legs around his neck | F |
| For warmth on winter nights He had slipped back | G |
| To see what men were doing in a world | H |
| That should be wiser He had watched a play | I |
| Read several books heard men discourse of art | J |
| And life and he sat bubbling like a spring | K |
| In Arden Never did blackbird drenched with may | I |
| Chuckle as Touchstone chuckled on that ride | L |
| Lord what a world Lord what a mad mad world | H |
| Then to the jolt and jingle of the engine | M |
| He burst into this bunch of madcap rhymes | N |
