Elizabeth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEDEEFFD

Elizabeth it surely is most fitA
Logic and common usage so commandingB
In thy own book that first thy name be writA
Zeno and other sages notwithstandingB
And I have other reasons for so doingB
Besides my innate love of contradictionC
Each poet if a poet in pursuingB
The muses thro' their bowers of Truth or FictionC
Has studied very little of his partD
Read nothing written less in short's a foolE
Endued with neither soul nor sense nor artD
Being ignorant of one important ruleE
Employed in even the theses of the schoolE
Called I forget the heathenish Greek nameF
Called anything its meaning is the sameF
Always write first things uppermost in the heartD
