It Seemes That Tunis Is An Auncient Towne Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFFIt seemes that Tunis is an auncient towne | A |
Neere to the ruines of Carthage once so prowde | B |
Whose stately buildings now are cleane pulled downe | A |
And calmde her bruit that sounded sometime lowde | B |
But roome that is their auncient far away | C |
Doth holde and shall though cities all decay | C |
- | |
Roome is more large then spacious Millaine faire | D |
Or Venice or the Tartars great Camball | E |
Boeams three Prages or Egypts rich Alcaire | D |
Or Quinset in Cataie biggest of them all | E |
And more I say after the day of doome | F |
Hell shall be no where vnles it be in roome | F |
