Modern Love Xviii: Here Jack And Tom Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFEGHHG| Here Jack and Tom are paired with Moll and Meg | A |
| Curved open to the river reach is seen | B |
| A country merry making on the green | B |
| Fair space for signal shakings of the leg | A |
| That little screwy fiddler from his booth | C |
| Whence flows one nut brown stream commands the joints | D |
| Of all who caper here at various points | D |
| I have known rustic revels in my youth | C |
| The May fly pleasures of a mind at ease | E |
| An early goddess was a county lass | F |
| A charmed Amphion oak she tripped the grass | F |
| What life was that I lived The life of these | E |
| Heaven keep them happy Nature they seem near | G |
| They must I think be wiser than I am | H |
| They have the secret of the bull and lamb | H |
| 'Tis true that when we trace its source 'tis beer | G |
