The Garden Of Epicurus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECEF| That Garden of sedate Philosophy | A |
| Once flourished fenced from passion and mishap | B |
| A shining spot upon a shaggy map | B |
| Where mind and body in fair junction free | A |
| Luted their joyful concord like the tree | A |
| From root to flowering twigs a flowing sap | B |
| Clear Wisdom found in tended Nature's lap | B |
| Of gentlemen the happy nursery | A |
| That Garden would on light supremest verge | C |
| Were the long drawing of an equal breath | D |
| Healthful for Wisdom's head her heart her aims | E |
| Our world which for its Babels wants a scourge | C |
| And for its wilds a husbandman acclaims | E |
| The crucifix that came of Nazareth | F |
