Jonathan Swift Somers (author Of The Spooniad) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJAKALMN

After you have enriched your soulA
To the highest pointB
With books thought sufferingC
The understanding of many personalitiesD
The power to interpret glances silencesE
The pauses in momentous transformationsF
The genius of divination and prophecyG
So that you feel able at times to hold the worldH
In the hollow of your handI
Then if by the crowding of so many powersJ
Into the compass of your soulA
Your soul takes fireK
And in the conflagration of your soulA
The evil of the world is lighted up and made clearL
Be thankful if in that hour of supreme visionM
Life does not fiddleN
