Ben Jonson: Iii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCDEED| BROAD BASED broad fronted bounteous multiform | A |
| With many a valley impleached with ivy and vine | B |
| Wherein the springs of all the streams run wine | B |
| And many a crag full faced against the storm | A |
| The mountain where thy Muse s feet made warm | A |
| Those lawns that revelled with her dance divine | B |
| Shines yet with fire as it was wont to shine | B |
| From tossing torches round the dance aswarm | A |
| - | |
| Nor less high stationed on the grey grave heights | C |
| High thoughted seers with heaven s heart kindling lights | C |
| Hold converse and the herd of meaner things | D |
| Knows or by fiery scourge or fiery shaft | E |
| When wrath on thy broad brows has risen and laughed | E |
| Darkening thy soul with shadow of thunderous wings | D |
