Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGF HIJI KLCL MNON PNNN

Gladstone was still respectedA
When John Ruskin producedB
'King's Treasuries' SwinburneC
And Rossetti still abusedD
-
Foetid Buchanan lifted up his voiceE
When that faun's head of hersF
Became a pastime forG
Painters and adulterersF
-
The Burne Jones cartonsH
Have preserved her eyesI
Still at the Tate they teachJ
Cophetua to rhapsodizeI
-
Thin like brook waterK
With a vacant gazeL
The English Rubaiyat was still bornC
In those daysL
-
The thin clear gaze the sameM
Still darts out faun like from the half ruin'd faceN
Questing and passiveO
Ah poor Jenny's case'N
-
Bewildered that a worldP
Shows no surpriseN
At her last maquero'sN
AdulteriesN
