The Personified Sentimental Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBADED AFGFHIJI| Affection's charm no longer gilds | A |
| The idol of the shrine | B |
| But cold Oblivion seeks to fill | C |
| Regret's ambrosial wine | B |
| Though Friendship's offering buried lies | A |
| 'Neath cold Aversion's snow | D |
| Regard and Faith will ever bloom | E |
| Perpetually below | D |
| - | |
| I see thee whirl in marble halls | A |
| In Pleasure's giddy train | F |
| Remorse is never on that brow | G |
| Nor Sorrow's mark of pain | F |
| Deceit has marked thee for her own | H |
| Inconstancy the same | I |
| And Ruin wildly sheds its gleam | J |
| Athwart thy path of shame | I |
