Montague Leverson Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFF| As some enormous violet that towers | A |
| Colossal o'er the heads of lowlier flowers | A |
| Its giant petals royally displayed | B |
| And casting half the landscape into shade | B |
| Delivering its odors like the blows | C |
| Of some strong slugger at the public nose | C |
| Pride of two Nations for a single State | D |
| Would scarce suffice to sprout a plant so great | D |
| So Leverson's humility outgrown | E |
| The meaner virtues that he deigns to own | E |
| To the high skies its great corolla rears | F |
| O'ertopping all he has except his ears | F |
