An Interpretation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFGHH| Now Lonergan appears upon the boards | A |
| And Truth and Error sheathe their lingual swords | A |
| No more in wordy warfare to engage | B |
| The commentators bow before the stage | B |
| And bookworms militant for ages past | C |
| Confess their equal foolishness at last | C |
| Reread their Shakspeare in the newer light | D |
| And swear the meaning's obvious to sight | D |
| For centuries the question has been hot | E |
| Was Hamlet crazy or was Hamlet not | E |
| Now Lonergan's illuminating art | F |
| Reveals the truth of the disputed 'part ' | G |
| And shows to all the critics of the earth | H |
| That Hamlet was an idiot from birth | H |
