James L. Flood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDD| As oft it happens in the youth of day | A |
| That mists obscure the sun's imperfect ray | A |
| Who as he's mounting to the dome's extreme | B |
| Smites and dispels them with a steeper beam | B |
| So you the vapors that begirt your birth | C |
| Consumed and manifested all your worth | C |
| But still one early vice obstructs the light | D |
| And sullies all the visible and bright | D |
| Display of mind and character You write | D |
