In A Lecture Room Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAAACCDEDBFGGF

Away haunt thou me notA
Thou vain PhilosophyB
Little hast thou besteadA
Save to perplex the headA
And leave the spirit deadA
Unto thy broken cisterns wherefore goC
While from the secret treasure depths belowC
Fed by the skyey showerD
And clouds that sink and rest on hilltops highE
Wisdom at once and PowerD
Are welling bubbling forth unseen incessantlyB
Why labor at the dull mechanic oarF
When the fresh breeze is blowingG
And the strong current flowingG
Right onward to the Eternal ShoreF

Arthur Hugh Clough
