Sonnet To Mathew Wood, Esq., Alderman And M. P. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABBAACDAEE F

Hold on thy course uncheck'd heroic WoodA
Regardless what the player's son may prateA
Saint Stephens' fool the Zany of DebateA
Who nothing generous ever understoodA
London's twice Pr tor scorn the fool born jestA
The stage's scum and refuse of the playersB
Stale topics against Magistrates and MayorsB
City and Country both thy worth attestA
Bid him leave off his shallow Eton witA
More fit to sooth the superficial earC
Of drunken Pitt and that pickpocket PeerD
When at their sottish orgies they did sitA
Hatching mad counsels from inflated veinE
Till England and the nations reeled with painE
