Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACBBBCBOracle of the market thence you drew | A |
The taste which stamped you guide of the inept | B |
A North sea pilot Hildebrand yclept | B |
A sturdy and a briny once men knew | A |
He loved small beer and for that copious brew | A |
To roll ingurgitation till he slept | B |
Rations exchanged with flavour for the adept | B |
And merrily plied him captain mate and crew | A |
At last this dancer to the Polar star | C |
Sank washed out within and overboard was pitched | B |
To drink the sea and pilot him to land | B |
O captain critic printed neatly stitched | B |
Know while the pillory eggs fly fast they are | C |
Not eggs but the drowned soul of Hildebrand | B |
