The Equipage Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEEFFGGHHIIJJFF| Since the Road of Life's so ill | A |
| I to pass it use this Skill | A |
| My frail Carriage driving home | B |
| To its latest Stage the Tomb | C |
| Justice first in Harness strong | D |
| Marches stedfastly along | D |
| Charity to smooth the Pace | E |
| Fills the next adjoining Trace | E |
| Independance leads the Way | F |
| Whom no heavy Curb do's sway | F |
| Truth an equal Part sustains | G |
| All indulg'd the loosen'd Reins | G |
| In the Box fits vig'rous Health | H |
| Shunning miry Paths of Wealth | H |
| Gaiety with easy Smiles | I |
| Ev'ry harsher Step beguiles | I |
| Whilst of Nature or of Fate | J |
| Only This I wou'd intreat | J |
| The Equipage might not decay | F |
| Till the worn Carriage drops away | F |
