A Better Thing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD| I took it for a bird of prey that soared | A |
| High over ocean battled mount and plain | B |
| 'Twas but a bird moth which with limp horns gored | A |
| The invisibly obstructing window pane | B |
| - | |
| Better than eagle with far towering nerve | C |
| But downward bent greedy marauding eye | D |
| Guest of the flowers thou art unhurt they serve | C |
| Thee little angel of a lower sky | D |
