William Jones Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGGHIGJAKLOnce in a while a curious weed unknown to me | A |
Needing a name from my books | B |
Once in a while a letter from Yeomans | C |
Out of the mussel shells gathered along the shore | D |
Sometimes a pearl with a glint like meadow rue | E |
Then betimes a letter from Tyndall in England | F |
Stamped with the stamp of Spoon River | G |
I lover of Nature beloved for my love of her | G |
Held such converse afar with the great | H |
Who knew her better than I | I |
Oh there is neither lesser nor greater | G |
Save as we make her greater and win from her keener delight | J |
With shells from the river cover me cover me | A |
I lived in wonder worshipping earth and heaven | K |
I have passed on the march eternal of endless life | L |
