Philip Massinger: V Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEED| CLOUDS here and there arisen an hour past noon | A |
| Chequered our English heaven with lengthening bars | B |
| And shadow and sound of wheel winged thunder cars | B |
| Assembling strength to put forth tempest soon | A |
| When the clear still warm concord of thy tune | A |
| Rose under skies unscared by reddening Mars | B |
| Yet like a sound of silver speech of stars | B |
| With full mild flame as of the mellowing moon | A |
| Grave and great hearted Massinger thy face | C |
| High melancholy lights with loftier grace | C |
| Than gilds the brows of revel sad and wise | D |
| The spirit of thought that moved thy deeper song | E |
| Sorrow serene in soft calm scorn of wrong | E |
| Speaks patience yet from thy majestic eyes | D |
