Portraits Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJEKE

An easy lazy length of limbA
Dark eyes and features from the southB
A short legged meditative pipeC
Set in a supercilious mouthB
Ink and a pen and papers laidD
Down on a table for the nightE
Beside a semi dozing manF
Who wakes to go to bed by lightE
-
A pair of brothers brotherlyG
Unlike and yet how much the sameH
In heart and high toned intellectI
In face and bearing hope and aimH
Friends of the selfsame treasured friendsJ
And of one home the dear delightE
Beloved of many a loving heartK
And cherished both in mine good nightE
