Late Wisdom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFGEHEHWe've trod the maze of error round | A |
Long wandering in the winding glade | B |
And now the torch of truth is found | A |
It only shows us where we strayed | B |
By long experience taught we know | C |
Can rightly judge of friends and foes | D |
Can all the worth of these allow | E |
And all the faults discern in those | D |
- | |
Now 'tis our boast that we can quell | F |
The wildest passions in their rage | G |
Can their destructive force repel | F |
And their impetuous wrath assuage | G |
Ah Virtue dost thou arm when now | E |
This bold rebellious race are fled | H |
When all these tyrants rest and thou | E |
Art warring with the mighty dead | H |
