Credulity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| If fallacies come knocking at my door | A |
| I'd rather feed and shelter full a score | A |
| Than hide behind the black portcullis doubt | B |
| And run the risk of barring one Truth out | B |
| - | |
| And if pretension for a time deceive | C |
| And prove me one too ready to believe | C |
| Far less my shame than if by stubborn act | D |
| I brand as lie some great colossal Fact | D |
| - | |
| On my soul's door the latch string hangs outside | E |
| Within the lighted candle Let me guide | E |
| Some errant follies on their wandering way | F |
| Rather than Wisdom give no welcoming ray | F |
