The Times Editorials Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGFF

Lovely Antiques breathing in every lineA
The perfume of an age long passed awayB
Wafting us back toC
Museum pieces of a by gone dayB
You should not languish in the public pressD
Where modern thought might reach and do you harmE
And vulgar youth insult your hoarinessD
Missing the flavor of your old world charmE
You should be locked where rust cannot corrodeF
In some old rosewood cabinet dimmed by ageG
With silver lustre tortoise shell and SpodeF
And all would cry who read your yellowing pageG
Yes that's the sort of thing that men believedF
Before the First Reform Bill was conceivedF
