Late Wisdom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFGEHEH| We'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 |
