Stephen Dorsey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAAAA| Fly heedless stranger from this spot accurst | A |
| Where rests in Satan an offender first | A |
| In point of greatness as in point of time | B |
| Of new school rascals who proclaim their crime | B |
| Skilled with a frank loquacity to blab | C |
| The dark arcana of each mighty grab | C |
| And famed for lying from his early youth | D |
| He sinned secure behind a veil of truth | D |
| Some lock their lips upon their deeds some write | A |
| A damning record and conceal from sight | A |
| Some with a lust of speaking die to quell it | A |
| His way to keep a secret was to tell it | A |
