Demos I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBA DEEDED| All you that are enamored of my name | A |
| And least intent on what most I require | B |
| Beware for my design and your desire | B |
| Deplorably are not as yet the same | A |
| Beware I say the failure and the shame | A |
| Of losing that for which you now aspire | C |
| So blindly and of hazarding entire | B |
| The gift that I was bringing when I came | A |
| - | |
| Give as I will I cannot give you sight | D |
| Whereby to see that with you there are some | E |
| To lead you and be led But they are dumb | E |
| Before the wrangling and the shrill delight | D |
| Of your deliverance that has not come | E |
| And shall not if I fail you as I might | D |
